“I like glitz and colors bright.
This is how I’d like the sight:
Wear pink, purple, or the color teal.
These are my favorites; That’s for real!
Though any bright color or glitz will do.
Just don’t wear black or I’ll come back to haunt you.
Sarcasm, irony, jokes, and a laugh …
May that be my final epitaph.”
-Mary K. Spencer

Mary Kay was a force to be told. She was smart, fun and full of laughter. She would do anything for you if it was within her power. I attended college with her and have loved her ever since. It was a privilege to call her my friend. RIP Mary Kay❤️
Joe, Matt and Nick,
Mary K brought such joy and laughter into my life as well as so many others. During the last few months she was in rehab, we had some great times playing games, singing songs with all the guest entertainers, eating ice cream on Fridays and everything in between. Her wit and poetry never ceased to amaze me. Even during some of hardest days, she. Was able to convey her trials and disappointments in a way that made us admirer her even more. It was an honor to call her my friend.
