Dear Aunt Gene, Shirley, Carolyn and Family, I have such wonderful memories of Mary Kay. She and i always found things to laugh about as well as spending many quality times together, especially during our growing years. I know you all will miss her lovely smile and all the special little things that endured her to you and everyone. When you have a cut this deep, it will take time to process and heal. May you all be given strength beyond what is normal to cope and endure this major loss. She was a Sweetheart! Love and heartfelt prayers, Cousin Tammy and John.
Mary Kay had the distinct honor of being my very first return client of my now 23 year long styling career. I say she had the honor, but in truth she honored me. She was a kind, gentle, and sensitive person who was a great observer of humanity and recognized the good in other people. I couldn’t have loved her more, and her friendship and patronage enriched my life in ways she probably never realized. I know she’s up there dazzling with the head full of voluminous, naturally baby blonde hair she always chased after in life. Big love to her and the entire family 😘
She will be missed…Prayers go out to her family and loved ones.
Our deepest condolences to the VanOostrom family. You all are in our thoughts and prayers. Mary Kay was always such a big help and so nice.

God Speed MaryKay…
Carolyn – You have my deepest sympathy.

I am so sorry to hear about Mary Kay. I am a cat person and have the cutest coffee cup with a fancy cat on it at work I use from time to time and always wish I had found it before she retired. She would have loved it!
