    Mary and Karl were our neighbors and friends for many years. Mary would walk with me as I walked to work at Logan Jr High, later we would take walks together. We watched our children grow up. Sympathy to the Luckner family.

    What a special lady! I met her in 1980 when I started being her hairstylist. We were together for MANY years and we had a special friendship. We grew old together...she watched my kids grow up and my grandchildren. I truly loved her! She will be missed by many. RIP Dear Mary Betty Campbell, Altoona
