My dear, dear friend Peggy’s mother, Mary Lee was one endearing woman. She was full of faith and had a smile that would light up a room and warm your heart. She always was doing lovely things for other people – taking older relatives to church and doctor appointments and making delicious meals and desserts for the downhearted and lonely. She simply loved to make someone’s average day a wonderful one. Her homemade Strawberry Rhubarb Pie was loved by everyone who received one, especially her adoring family. The pink sweet-tart filling and flaky crust were a perfect combination for this early summer pie. There was nothing better than to see her with a glorious pie in her arms and a smile on her face. Mrs. Pricco was indeed a woman we should all emulate. She lived her life simply and beautifully, giving to others her time, her laughter, and her love.
