I miss my Mother more than life itself. She was a wonderful wife of 62 years to my father, John Thomas Truitt, devoted Mother to her children, John, Julie, and Cathi, doting Grandmother, two Great Grandchildren, 1 sister, and numerous nieces , nephews, and extended relatives. Some give much; Mary gave all.
Mary died in the home of her daughter, Cathi, in Arlington, Texas, surrounded by her husband and family. Her body was flown back to Peoria, Illinois where she spent the greater part of her life. She is buried at St. Mary’s Cemetery, Peoria, IL.
