Mary Beth Stanley 1968-2016
It was one year ago today, September 16, 2016, that she was freed from that damnable wheelchair, riding west on the spirit of her beloved Rolly Polly. She joined her special angel Reed, and her mother, Letha.
I wrote her story last year: In Memoriam, Mary Beth Stanley 1968-2016
She wrote a poem while in the tenth grade, “Think of Me.”

Think of Me, by Mary Beth Stanley
Let your thoughts of her be filled with love.
Please

Mary Beth on Rolly Polly
Two of her favorite singers were Sir Elton John and George Michael. She was able to see Elton John in concert just a few weeks before her death. She was so grateful for the tickets.

Dear Chuck, I am humbled by the strength and depth of love exhibited by your family. Know that you are all in my prayers.
Thank you. She fought the good fight, but the monster won.
Monsters often win, but we fight them to the end.
Yes.
It has taken so much from so many. We will beat it. We have to. Somebody will earn a Nobel Prize one day.
A beautiful memorial. What a beautiful woman she was, and how powerfully she grew her memories. so that they’re still growing!
I wish you long life and all the fruits of the love you and your family have grown.
Wonderful.
