Dear Facebook Friends of  Mary:

“The family of Mary Tomaselli has planned a celebration of her life next Sunday at Ashbury Hall and all welcomed to join them. As they plan the celebration, the family wants to gauge how many people to expect at Ashbury Hall. If you plan on attending please click “like” on the post on Facebook. The family looks forward to seeing you and honoring Mary in a very special way.  Thank you for your kind words, love and support.”

If you want to find out more about Mary , please read her blog at Marysangelsonline.

Also, if you plan to attend the  celebration at Ashbury Hall, 341 Delaware Avenue,  March 27, at 1 PM,  leave a comment on this blog Especially for Women in Buffalo New York  as well, and I’ll post on her Facebook wall.

I know many of us are thinking about Mary after she passed, remembering the good times we had with her.  Mary fought her cancer like a warrior never giving up hope encouraged by her  loving family and friends.But in the end she chose to live out her last days here  close to them. And died on March 16, 2011. There is Guest Book at Legacy for comments about beautiful Mary….

Mary was unique, special, a friend to all and treated everybody with dignity…that’s why we all loved  her. And Especially for Women in Buffalo, New York honors her  because she was a special woman in Buffalo.

Honoring my friend Mary Tomaselli

Our Beautiful Friend: Mary Tomaselli

UPDATE (MARCH 17, 2011)–I wrote this post on this blog almost one year ago to help bring awareness to the plight of Mary Tomaselli and the benefit planned  to raise funds for her medical care. I first heard that Mary  Tomaselli died on Facebook perhaps last night sometime, if so, our condolences to her family . I saw Mary one night three months ago at Wegmans and we talked about getting together. I was happy  to see her. She looked great, but we never got together and how I wished we had now that she passed and like many of her friends I feel the pain and I’m sad…

Mary Tomaselli  has an infectious personality someone you remember because she is a caring, warm and a compassionate soul, treating all she comes into contact with dignity and respect regardless of their ethnicity, colour, or social-class background.

If she likes you and I know she  liked me, she’ll invite you to her home as she did with me and she offered the warm hospitality many experience at La Tee Da her restaurant on Allen Street in Buffalo, New York.

I met Mary before I had my daughter Corrie  now twenty-three years old , so I  met her in the mid-eighties when she worked at the Lexington Coop. I stayed in contact with her off and on and dropped in to see her when she owned the dry cleaning business on Allen. In fact, Mary is a business entrepreneur and has been a role model for other women in the area.

Mary  has cancer specifically  colon cancer a story she wrote about in her blog Marys Angels Online where she discussed the experience and the impact it’s having on her life, family, and friends.

On Sunday, April 18, 2010, from 2 PM to 6 PM there is a Benefit for Mary at Harry’s Habour Grille. Donation is $30.00. If you need further information call 716 472-2352. If you can’t make it send the donation  in care of All State Insurance, 491 Delaware Avenue, 14202.

As  her daughter  affectionately posted a letter  on the blog:

“MY MOTHER TOUCHES SO MANY PEOPLE IN SO MANY DIFFERENT WAYS THAT I FIRMLY BELIEVE THIS IS A MESSAGE.”
