I joined Kaman in Jan 1983 and work for Mary for over 10 years.  Mary taught me everything I know about Contracts Administration, dealing with customers, negotiating contracts, being detail oriented and thorough.  We remained good friends throughout her life.  Mary and Gordon joined Michael and I on our special wedding day and we got to share precious memories with them at Karen and George's wedding.  Mary and Gordon supported me for many years at the annual Walk for Fidelco Guide Dog Foundation at Kaman.  Gordon and Mary were always there to provide their support and a smile as I walked those many miles to raise money for the foundation.  Mary and Gordon used to meet us for dinner at the Saybrook Fish House in Canton.  It was Gordon and my favorite fish restaurant.  We shared many memories and good laughs.  I will miss her smile.  She was a loving mother, grandmother and friend.  Rest in peace my friend until we meet again.  Lovingly Elaine & Michael.
