Mary enjoyed the company of family and friends when she engaged in her favorite pastimes of gardening, fishing, working crossword puzzles, having a good lunch, and playing Bingo, which she usually won. Her fishing buddies had as much fun as Mary once they learned to duck and cover when she was casting her line. Even a dull crossword puzzle was fun when you worked it with Mary. When St. Peter welcomes her and tells her that she deserves a rest, we can just hear her saying, You got that right.
