Donna,
I know that it isn't much help, but I really do think that Mary knew you were there in spirit. If you loved her that much; how could she not know that if you could have you would have been there? You were there for her when she was alive and that is the most important thing. God Bless you! I am adding you and her family to my prayers. May she rest in peace knowing that she lead a good and full life. She obviously touched your life.
