I would like to say that Mary Chirico was one of the most humble and most care giving individuals one could ever know in their lifetime. To know Mary was a honored privilege seeing how she unselfishly dedicated her "whole" life to her brother who needed "complete" physical assistance for close to 40 years. In her later years, she also took care of her mother, while still maintaining a full time job in Herkimer. To give you a better idea on only "one" of Mary''s ultimate sacrifices, I would like to share with you the following: Her days began by getting her brother Tony ready for school every day where he was a Guidance Counselor. She then drove to Herkimer with her mother who was also sleeping overnight with Tony and Mary because she didn't want to live alone in Herkimer. She then would drop her mother off at her house in Herkimer, go to work for a full day, pick up her mother and then drive back to Glennville to meet Tony when his school day had ended. She made this 150 mile round trip "every work day" for 2 plus years. She then made dinner for all, did the shopping, cleaning house, paying bills, etc., etc., etc. To me, and most other who really knew Mary, she was one of a kind and in a class by herself. She was, in my humble opinion, an ultimate "SAINT.." May she now NOW REST IN PEACE..................
