    I may have some of the dates mixed up but I have seen Mary perform as a solo a few times. I had wanted to see the Supremes in 1975 but I was too young to go to a nightclub alone [[Holiday House) and my family was unable to go with me due to health concerns.
    1984-Holiday House-Backed by Karen Jackson & Robin Alexander, great show included Red Hot in a way I wish it had been recorded. Before I went in, a lady came out and started talking to me for some reason[[there were 4 in my group) and was excited and kept saying how great Mary was and that she still had it. Of course, this was my first show but I wished I had seen her again to just say she was so right.
    1998 & 1999-Headliner at 3WS Oldies Festival. She killed it and was asked back the second time. I met her at 2 meet & greets and had many things signed. She even sang Bad Weather in 1999 and River Deep Mountain High so it was a real treat.
    2002-Taping of Rhythm, Love & Soul. She was amazing and did some hosting. I loved when she was introducing the Three Degrees and got caught up and did an Ed Sullivan and said "the girls"[[not in the special, edited out for the take she did with their name). TJ even thanked her for stepping up to do some hosting, which she wasn't supposed to do.
    2014-At Rivers Casino while she was taping a special for TJ for PBS. Great show and met both her and Parnell, her backup with Lucy.
    2016-Heinz Hall. She was the headliner for a Doo Wop Christmas show. I had just survived 2 bouts with a health scare. I saw her at the meet and greet but did not have a chance to see her later or Parnell. She signed a number of items and I congratulated her on her top 20 dance hit.
    It may not be many times, but they are good memories and her performances were amazing vocally at each show, she seemed to sound better with time.
