Mary left us a wonderful legacy. We hope that we are able to navigate the aging process as gracefully as she did and reflect Christ and our hope in Him to those around us. She was such a trooper and we never heard her complain. When she shared about a situation even though it may have been inconvenient or even hard for her, she always ended with "and that's just fine," or "and that's OK".
We admired Mary's heart for missions and her passion in fulfilling Christ's Great Commission to make disciples in all nations. Mary was a caring person toward those around her. She was always interested in our family, was "Grandma Mary" to our girls, and it was always fun to visit her.
We send our love, prayers and condolences.

Mary was truly the most selfless and gregarious lovely lady I had the privilege to know. She loved it when I could join my grandson (Mary 's great grand son)Cael for swimming in her condo pool. Her community will miss this very loving lady.

We will miss Mary so much. Visits to my parents at Welcov almost always included a chat with Mary, usually at lunch time. Two things I fondly remember about her: she always ate her dessert first, and you could never predict what color her hair would be! Mary was one of my favorite people in Spirit Lake, and we just loved catching up with her. Our heartfelt sympathies go out to the whole family. ~ Hugs from Lance and Judi (Clauson) Vogel

We will miss Mary's outstretched hand of fellowship and love at the end of FPC's service for those around her. It was heartfelt and a great way to head out into the world for another week. God bless you, Mary and those around you.

My deepest sympathy to the Cornell Family. Mary was a treasure to our area and she will be missed greatly. I enjoyed seeing her and talking with her. She was always up on everything and very engaging. She was so kind to me when our mom was ill. I have missed her at the condo and seeing all the grand kids too. She was so special. Thinking of all of you.

I'm recalling many happy times with both Mary and Bob Cornell. Bill West introduced us in 1968, and we enjoyed many hugs and chats at Okoboji Summer Theatre board meetings, before shows, and in between acts in front of the theatre. They were instrumental in getting OST started, and Mary's support and presence continued for a long time after Bob's passing. Mary had a radiant smile and she always gave great hugs.
Addison Myers
I've heard Addison speak so fondly of Mary for almost four decades. I always understood why because I was a fan of Mary's as a result of my friendship with Bobbie and Dee Cornell. Carolyn, Christine, Cathalee, you and your families are in my thoughts. I hope the many fond memories you have of your Mom will bring you comfort in the days ahead. Dee, you know you and your family have long had a place in my heart...and there you will always remain.

We send our love and sympathy.
I knew Mary as a dear contemporary of my mom's who also liked to call me LindaKay; I have many memories of her loving presence from when I was a classmate of Carolyn's to current talks and club programs. Bill knew her as a wonderful supporter of programs at First Pres.
Mary helped make us each a little better and her work lives on.....:rose:

I want to take this opportunity to remember Ms. Mary in the Ladies of the Lake DAR, she was an inspiration to a new member such as myself. I ponder to think of her commitment in sharing a devotional message and how her inner spirit shinned. God Bless her strength of Love in all ways and in all gatherings.

Her obituary was so well written!! It sums up her life to a tee! She packed a lot of events and fun in her 95 years of life. She was truly an amazing lady. I am member of FPC and have known her for about 27 years. My oldest daughter, Mikayla age 24 & youngest daughter, Katelyn age 20 have always thought the world of Mary. They have learned alot from her and she shared lots of stories with all of us. I will miss her dearly.
