Mary Michele Baker Carrajat
By now many of you have heard from Charlie and other classmates that easily the most energetic, popular and positive member of our class has passed away. She was the first classmate to respond and post something on the infant blog back in April 2009. She was also the first to send photos and video from the 50th Reunion and in January sent her last contribution as a stalwart member of the Trinity Jersey Girls. You just know Mary was there at the head of the line to claim her eternal reward on May 1st, 2013. My sincerest condolences to Wes Carrajat who must be heartbroken yet consoled that she will always be with him wherever he travels. Our thoughts and prayers should be for both of them.

Mary's death strikes me particularly hard. I'd known the girl forever, she'd lived down the street from me in Cranford forever. Stupidly, sillily, each year on the 28th of April, we'd send each other an e-mail, commemorating the date when we jointly made our First Holy Communions in 1951. I sent her one just a few days ago, didn't get a reply...
I'll miss her.

Mary was my idol the last few years, with her and Wes' unbelievable schedule of golf,skiing and dancing. Her energy seemed boundless and gift for life yet simplistic. We will all miss her!
