In Loving Memory Of

Mary Ann Ling Moser

"She has achieved success who has lived well, laughed often and loved much..who has filled her niche and accomplished  her  task....who has left the world better than she found it...whose life was an inspiration...whose memory a benediction."
-Betty Anderson Stanley.
