Mary Flores Ramirez, resident of Porter, became free from her earthly bonds, ascending into the heavens, to be with our Holy Father on May 17, 2013 at the age of 71. Born Sept. 8, 1941 in San Marcos, she is preceded in death by father of her daughter Jesse Ramirez; parents Benito Sr. and Carment Flores. There are several chapters in Mary's life , but the one chapter she cherished was her daughter Regina "Gina" and grandchildren. Even her son-in-law Chris was like a son to her. Though Mary begins her new life with our Lord, like the wind, her warmth and love will always be felt.

The staff from the Gary Job Corps Center have come out to help our neighbors to the North in raising funds. More than $788 was raised to be donated to the United Way of Hays County for the residents of West, Texas. The Gary Center has assisted in the past to other natural disasters from Katrina to Haiti. The Crew from Gary Job Jobs has not only offered funds but labor which was the case in the Clean-up at the Bastrop Fires and the home building in Louisiana following the Katrina Hurricane.
