I had the great pleasure of being mary's daughter in law to her son Jacob. Mary and I became great friends from the first time I met her, gram as we called her was a great grandmother and (mother) to Chantel, and a great grandmother to Maria. It was a great pleasure to have her in my life for 33 years, you are greatly missed as is your son Jacob who passed away July 19, 2017. My heart is broken not having you both in my life but I know you both are my angles and will be looking over us love and miss you glad you were in my life

I am so sorry for your families loss. Mary was such a wonderful person. She would go out of her way to help everyone she met. Such a strong independent person. She taught me more then she will ever know. Hugs and prayers to all the Semanchik family.

I had the pleasure of meeting Mary a couple weeks ago in Cape May.She had come down to visit her granddaughter Chantel and take a ride on a horse and carriage.I asked if she needed help getting in her ride and she said no,she hopped right in.Throughly enjoying herself,she was laughing when they all returned.What a strong spirit she had.Sending condolences to her entire family,I know she will be missed.
