We just wanted you to know we are thinking of you during this difficult time. Just returned from Phoenix and learned of the loss. While in Phonenix, I passed Honeywell and thought of the many times she had shared experiences of her trips there. She was a wonderful individual who will be missed by all.
Miles, Stephanie, Ben and Jennifer, I am so sorry to hear about Mary. She was such a wonderful person and such an inspiration to me. From meeting her 19 years ago at work, to joining the Seminole Junior Woman's Club because of her and learning from her about the band program, to her being my Finance expert at work, I will miss her. She was so proud of each of you and a role model to me. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you.
We were extremely saddened to hear of your great loss. Your Wife was a great woman. We wish you all great blessings and a future of joy. God Bless. You, your family, and especially Mary will always be in our prayers.
Stephen Chirsky & Family
Miles & Family, I just heard and a great sadness came over me. Mary was an inspiration to me at Honeywell. I loved her positive attitude and smiling face. Our condolences and prayers are with you during this difficult time.
God Bless.
Mary was a wonderful and caring person. I had the pleasure of working with her for a short period of time here at Honeywell. She was always willing to help when needed. I will miss her and her smile. My prayers go out to Miles and the family. May God bless you during this hard time.
Miles & family - my thoughts and prayers are with you all. I've been thinking of her since leaving Honeywell, and they have always been good thoughts and positive prayers. Mary demonstrated class and strength to all of us in finance.
Miles, Stephanie, Jen & Ben, Our prayers are with you during this time of sorrow. I have fond memories of growing up across the street on 84th Terrace. Words never seem to be adequate during this time of grief, but please accept our sincerest condolences.
Mary's smile, laughter, spirit, and goodness will remain in the hearts of everyone who knew her. My thoughts and sympathy are with you at this sad time.
Mary and I met when we were Freshman in High School and me, Nancy and Mary became inseparable....the Three Musketeers! More than 37 years later, I am proud to still call Mary one of my closest and dearest friends. Since we lived just a block from each other in Hollywood, I practically lived at her house. Mary's mom will always hold a special place in my heart because she was always so kind to me....the most amazing thing about the Gassler house was they had 10 kids and it was the quietest,least chaotic house of all my friends!
Two years ago, nancy, mary and I took our daughters on a cruise. They had never met but we wanted so desperately to create another generation of friends. We had a blast, the girls got along great...and it is a trip I will never forget!
My heart and love go to Miles (Mary's Rock), Stephanie, Ben, Jen and all the Gasslers.
I love you all....and Mary Kay, my dear dear friend...I will miss you forever.
Love Always,
Lisa K
I'm so sad to hear about Mary's passing. It was a joy to be in her company. Mary's smile and laugh would always light up the room. I will always remeber this. Miles, I'm praying hard for you and the family during this most difficult time.
