Mary Kahn, 88, of Hickory, passed away Sunday, January 11, 2015 at Brian Center in Viewmont.

Mary was born December 10, 1926, in Norfolk, VA, to the late Margaret Owen Barrett and Ernest Eugene Plouff. She moved to Weems, VA, where she spent most of her childhood. It was in this relative poverty stricken area that she learned to get along with and help others, and it was here that she learned the value of cooperation and love of thy neighbor and community. It was also here that she learned to help others as many people learned to help themselves and each other during the rough times of that era. This became especially more noticeable during the war.

Mary moved to NY to expand her horizons, and there she met her husband, Howard Kahn. It was in NY they raised her son, Claude Barrett, and in 1959 her daughter, Meryl Jean Kahn, was born.

She later moved to NC to be near her family and her grandchildren. She had an impact on everyone she met. It was her constant selfless concern for others and little acts of kindness that all will remember. When you talked to her, her genuine sense concern for others was obvious. Throughout her life, she always helped others and their concerns before her own. She was very active in her church, and always put God before herself in everything she did.

In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her husband, Howard Kahn; and son, Claude Barrett; a brother, John Barrett and a sister, Francis Parisi.

She is survived by her her brother, James Barrett of New York, her daughter, Meryl Jean Paspa and husband Philip of Hickory, NC; two grandsons: Max and Alex Paspa, both of Hickory, NC; three granddaughters: Gabby Paspa of Hickory, NC, Nicole Barrett and Kim Listwan, both of New York; four great-grandchildren: Jessica Barrett, Melissa Listwan, Katherine Serpe and James Serpe and two great-great grandchildren: Ava Thomas and Mason Jensen, of New York.

She will be sorely missed by her family and all who knew her, who in this time of grief, nevertheless recall and celebrate with joy an extraordinary life of service to others and an attitude of selflessness which was borne of hard times and was present throughout her long and good life – in good times and bad. She was always helpful to and concerned for others above herself.

We will celebrate her life with happiness on Saturday, January 24, 2015 at 2:00 p.m. at Corinth Reformed Church with Pastor Bob Thompson officiating.

We Honor Your Memory Forever: Matt Sheahan
This page is dedicated to remembering a wonderful and amazing man, my dear friend Matt. Please share pics, stories or memories.

It is with a heavy heart I write to officially inform you of the demise of my Mother Miss. Rose Akuoko (a.k.a Akua Maame)

She passed on to glory September 30th, 2014

Creating the memorial for my father was one of the most calming feelings that I have had since his passing.

Vicente Cordero Manero fue mi padre, y a pesar de que murió cuando yo apenas tenía 2 años, siempre ha estado presente conmigo.
Por pláticas en familia y de gente que lo conoció, supe que fue una gran persona; como hijo, como hermano, como esposo, como padre, como socio, como jefe, como amigo y como mexicano que ¡amaba a su país!.
Mi papi, como lo llamamos siempre, murió muy joven y no dejó mucho escrito acerca de su familia, su infancia o su modo de pensar.
He aquí algunas palabras de mis hermanos acerca de él:

ALICIA (Asha):
Cuando pienso en mi pa veo un hombre súper fuerte espiritualmente, que entendía y tenía los valores que nos enseño Jesus de integridad, solidaridad y afecto. Lo recuerdo profundamente comprometido con Dios, con la familia y con la sociedad. Un esposo y papa muy cariñoso a la vez consciente del papel directivo que tenia en ambos roles. Un empresario que con este mismo fundamento encabezó su constructora. Un hombre que trabajaba en su propia formación leyendo lo que le ayudaba a su cumplir sus objetivos. Desde “El control mental y emocional” hasta “Como tener amigos e influir sobre los demas” y “Cómo hablar en público”. Sabía lo que quería y le taloneaba. Buscaba estar cerca de nosotros y estimularnos a descubrir la naturaleza, disfrutarla y hasta dibujarla. Recuerdo el día que en el Chico nos puso a dibujar Las Monjas. Le agradezco su modo de abrirme el mundo y de llenarme de intereses.

LEONOR (Noy):
Nuestros extraordinarios y queridísima Papás.
Nos dejaron un extraordinario LEGADO de buscar el mejor camino para llegar a transmitir el extraordinario ejemplo.

CARMEN (Tita):
Qué me viene a la mente cuando pienso en nuestro papi: su ternura, su acercamiento a Dios, su hablarse cariñosamente entre ellos: Papis y Mamis, se llamaban uno al otro. Su conciencia social y su gran disposición al compromiso. Su amor a la naturaleza lo percibí en El Chico y en el bosque de Chapultepec. Dos frases que me dijo algunas veces: “es por tu bien”, y “tú puedes hacerlo mejor “. Y la última que le oí ese domingo 15 al visitarlo, vestida de amarillo, en el hospital: “Ápa Óle” que le copió a Pancho. En fin, compruebo que “el amor es más fuerte que la muerte”
Espero que este sitio sirva para que mis seis hermanos y cualquiera que lo conoció, escriban sus recuerdos y expresen sus sentimientos acerca de él.

VICENTE:
El mejor testimonio de quien era nuestro papá (y nuestra mamá) son los excepcionales valores de cariño, sencillez, alegría y optimismo que nos heredaron!!
