Title: Mary Tyson
Post by: valhalla on 16-Jan-16, 10:41:03 AM
Long time falcon watchers will remember Mary Tyson.  It is with much sadness that I share that her son Adam e-mailed me that Mary passed away this morning at about 8:20. She went peacefully and was in no pain. Mary was a rock and an inspiration!  I know that many here will miss her.

Thanks for letting us know, Janet. Very sad news. An inspiration indeed.

Mary Tyson, your time with us will always be remembered. You have been a loyal follower of our falcons and a valued member of the Rfalconcam community. For that we will be forever grateful. May you rest in peace.

And thank you, Janet, for passing along this sad news to the group. I'm sure it wasn't easy.

Mary was an active member of the Siamese breeding and showing community from the 70s, which was how I first made her acquaintance.  She was One Great Lady indeed, and one whom I've been proud to call my Friend since way back then.  She kicked cancer's arse for many years, and left in her own time.  Our world is the poorer for her loss  :crying:

Mary would want us to celebrate her life.  I'll share arrangement information when Adam sends it on.  I do believe that TYSON would be a terrific name for the first falcon baby this year - a perfect celebration for Mary!

 :( Mary and I e-mailed and then messaged on FaceBook and sent cards to each other, she was a special gal.  I didn't meet her until 2004 when we "met" on here, but we definitely have had a good friendship.  It was fun talking to her on the phone a couple times.

Personally, I think Tyson would be a super name for one of our falcons.  :heart:

Mary and I emailed back and forth also. Boy, she was such an upbeat, positive woman.  She had quite a sense of humor also. I'll miss my B-day sister!  :handshake:

Let's keep this in mind when we're asked for nominations for a name to be chosen by the members of Rfalconcam.

I just put it out there, so I reckon it is a nomination.

Always good when someone with a quiet commitment is honoured.

I'm sorry I never got to meet Mary.  It sounds like she was a very special lady.

I didn't know who she was. She might have been more of a Mariah and Kaver follower and didn't participate on the Forum when Beauty took over?

Kris, I think Mary T. was on more with Mariah & Kaver, that's when I was around a lot more too.  She's also battled cancer off and on.  Yes Patsy, she was special.  :heart:

On March 5th, at 10am, there will be a Memorial Service to celebrate the lives of Mary and Wayne Tyson, at the First Congregational Church of Stamford, on Walton Place, in downtown Stamford, with a reception to follow. If you can make it, please join us and share a story.

For those near and dear!  :heart:
