Mary Elizabeth Shirey

Mary and I started our friendship in 7th grade.  We were seated alphabeticlly in Science class.  And Saunders set next to Shirey.  This was the start of a great friendship until she moved to New York.  We didn't see each other for many years but reconnected shortly after she moved back to Texas.  However, by that time I was married and living in Oklahoma.  We did have the wonderful opportunity to reconnect at our GPHS 40th reunion in 2011.  She Gail Thomas Clark and I had a great time catching up on our lives and enjoying the evening.  We had a few pictures taken together and they are posted on this sight.  She was a special person to me and I shall always hold dear the memories we shared in junior and senior high school.  May she rest in peace....
