“Loyalty and honesty. I try to be direct with tact,
which sometimes I succeed and sometimes I
don’t, but it is very important for me to have trust
and for my friends to always know where I stand,”
Mary shared.
Both ladies agree that their friendship has been an
organic one, not one that takes a lot of energy or
unnecessary time. “One of the wildest things I have
seen Linda do is climbing a rock wall on a cruise ship on
our way to Cuba,” Mary shares laughing. “And one of the
wildest things I remember about you is when you were
dancing on the tabletops at the Octoberfest in Germany,”
Linda says with a deep belly laugh.
In closing of the interview, I asked both ladies how they
would describe one another in just three words. Gentle,
kind and a foody are the words that Mary chose for Linda,
while driven, self-assertive and reliable are the words that
Linda used in describing Mary. When asked what words of
wisdom they have for the younger generations, both said
the same thing. Spend more time with the ones you love.
