Location	San Jose, CA, United States
Introduction	Mary has lived in San Jose, CA since 1991, but at heart is still a Buffalonian. “You can take the girl out of Buffalo, but you can’t take Buffalo out of the girl.” She has two grown sons: Brian (and wife Glo) in Chicago and Scott (and wife Patti) in exurban Buffalo. She lives now with Sheba and Riley, (pictures below) who, she says, “are delightful companions, make me laugh, and keep me sane in these insane times.” Mary has finally retired, and enjoying every minute of it, especially the sleeping in part. She admits to an addiction to Spider Solitaire, and is an avid reader, crossword puzzle (only the big ones) and Sudoku (only the evil ones) solver, and plans to return to knitting “one of these days”. Photography is an occasional hobby.
