"My dearest Mary,
Chance brought us together and thete was an instant connection. You blessed me with your friendship. You were my sister from another family and my partner. I could always count on you, no matter what the situation.
I lived happy knowing that you were always there for me, we had each other's back, always!
I loved that I was lucky enough to work with my best friend everyday and share so much together. I will miss your laughter, your smile and also that look you used to give me when you knew, I knew... You made me laugh so hard when you didn't get a joke and found joy in how i could make you laugh so hard you cried with my stories.
I'll miss our long conversations and the funny way you would wiggle and squirm to escape my unexpected bear hugs. I'd give anything to hug you again.
I am glad that I know you knew how much I loved and respected you, I told you whenever I was feeling mushy!
What I'm not so sure of is if you knew how much I looked up to you, you inspired me to always be better than I thought I could as a person and a friend.
I miss you deeply, i will love and remember you forever. It will be strange to hear my name without yours, as we have always been Mary and Dimmy.
"There are some who bring a light so great to the world that even after they have gone the light remains."
Your light was so bright, it will continue to guide me and shine in my heart for the rest of my life.
Rest in peace my beautiful Mary.
With love always and forever xx

I hope you are able to gain some small comfort from all the beautiful and special memories and tributes you have of Mary's short but wonderful life. Taken away from this earth to young.

Hold onto the great love she shared with you all, she will be just a quiet whisper away for you all.

For a second you were flying
Like you always wanted to
Now you’ll fly forever
In skies of azure blue
We’ll see your smile in every ray
Of sunshine after rain
And hear the echo of your laughter
Over all the pain
The world’s a little quieter now
The colours have lost their hue
The birds are singing softly
And our hearts are missing you
Each time we see a little cloud
Or a rainbow soaring high
We’ll think of you and gently
Wipe a tear from our eye

I am for ever grateful you entered my life, an angel on earth.
My life will never be the same....

Posted by Nia Karteris 04/05/2020

From the moment that I heard of Marys pasing I have been in a daze. I feel numb.
To say that Mary was a truly beautiful, kind, genuine and caring person, would be an understatement. Her effervescent personality just shone through every time she was in a room. Tears fill my eyes as i type this.

Mary was an angel on earth, she truly was.
My son is friends with Chloe and was lucky enough to spend so much time with the family, and even got to travel with them. Connor would always tell me how caring Mary was and how she always trated him like her own.....Everyone that knew her know that she was beyond amazing. Her family loved her immensely and that was so evident.
She will remain in our hearts and memory forever. Our earth angel is now looking down on us.

Thank you Mary for being a second mum to my son for all those years. He spoke so fondly and highly of you...... even saying things to me like ;mum why cant you be more like thia Mary?'

My thoughts are with Frank, Chloe, Johnathon and all the family..

Your memory will be in our hearts always and forever because beautiful people are not easily forgotten.

I have know Mary for more than 20 years, in fact from the time she and Dimmi started Bizzaro Bridal. Mary and Dimmi were my customers. They had the best business friendship I have ever seen. They complimented each other design wise and the sense of humour between them was contagious and uplifting . It was so good to be in their company. Their humour solved all problems and eased all tensions. Their wasn’t anything a laugh couldn’t fix. To see this duo broken by Mary’s passing is so sad. I will miss Mary very much . Such a lovely person. Rest In Peace Mary.. Love Sue Donnelley

Words cannot express the sadness when i heard about Mary's passing. wishing you all prayers of love and strength. Losing a loved one is very hard. May her memory be eternal.

Although your work on earth is done,
Your life in heaven has just begun.
Your struggles here were hard and long,
But they're over now; you're finally home.

Life wasn't easy, by choice or fate.
A decision made, sometimes too late.
A fight to the finish, always strong.
Rest easy, Mary, you're finally home.

A beautiful poem dedicated to Mary and her family.
RIP Dear Mary.

Do Not Stand at My Grave and Weep

Do not stand at my grave and weep,
I am not there, I do not sleep. 

I am a thousand winds that blow.
I am the diamond glint on snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain.
I am the gentle autumn rain. 

When you wake in the morning hush,
I am the swift, uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circling flight.
I am the soft starlight at night. 

Do not stand at my grave and weep.
I am not there, I do not sleep.
(Do not stand at my grave and cry.
I am not there, I did not die!)

Still in shock that such a beautiful friend was taken so soon. Mary was the most loving, caring and selfless friend. I will miss our chats and seeing her beautiful smile. My condolences and thoughts are with Frank, Jonathan and Chloe, as well as her work sister Dimmi. We met Mary over 20 years ago making my sister in-laws wedding dress. From the minute we met her we knew what a talented, giving and humble woman she was. She then had a part in making every single important dress in our lives and made us feel like we were part of Hollywood; every stitch, seam and detail made with love. She would pop in for a coffee or just to drop something off because she had thought of me. I believe our loss is truly heavens gain, because she was always an angel. I will miss her dearly and she has left a void in all the hearts she touched. Frank is a true testament of a best friend. He never left Mary’s side or waived in his duty as a husband. She definitely knew how much he loved her and would constantly tell me what he meant to her. We pray that her soul rests in peace xxx

For many, a funeral is a ritual of loss and connection where we remember our loved ones who have passed and comfort the living. The coronavirus outbreak has altered that ritual and changed the way we say goodbye: the loss remains, the connections change.

The family has the difficult decision of which ten people will attend the funeral. They are aware that many of you would like to attend but unfortunately, due to the restrictions in place, it is not possible.

Following the live stream of the funeral on Tuesday, a link to the tribute video celebrating the life of Mary will be available for your viewing.

Mary always had a respect for Father Nektarios Zorbalas of St Constantine and Helen Greek Orthodox Church Newtown for feeding the homeless of Sydney. In lieu of flowers, we know that Mary would love for donations to be made to St Constantine and Helen Soup Kitchen.  If you would like to donate, please click on the link DONATE and in the "In Memory" area place Mary Rallis.  Bank account details will be added later today to do a direct deposit if you wish.

Thank you to everyone for their expressions of love, support, and for sharing memories.
