Condolences
The family of Mary L. Fox has received the following condolences.
To Mary’s family I want to offer my greatest condolences. Mary and I worked together at Pace Dairy for 18 years. Most of those years her desk was few feet from my office and we shared many moments and confidences . She loved her family and loved to tell you of their success and family adventures. She was at Pace when the doors originally opened and contributed greatly to Paces success. She cared about all employees and gave great encouragement to all.
Rest In Peace Mary your work here is complete. God bless you and your family.
