A Tribute to Mary Ellen Le Duc
Mary Ellen, Mary Ellen, hostess extraordinaire
A shaker and a mover, throws parties with such flair
You’ve carved a niche in our neighborhood,
We’ve always wondered where
You snatched your effervescence, and your energy to share
Mary Ellen, Mary Ellen, we don’t know what we’ll do
When Halloween comes knocking on our doors in a week or two,
For you and Jim and Lib and Paul have worked so hard ‘tis true
That ghosts and goblins will be lost and may become unglued
Without those hot dogs, hamburgers and treats up the wazoo!
Mary Ellen, Mary Ellen, life will never be the same
For we will lose a friend, a helper in the rain
A unique force for friendship in a special neighborhood
Someone who makes things happen, a doer of much good
And even though we’ll miss you and your beloved Jim
We pray for blessings from above as you move to Galveston.

A Tribute to Mary Ellen Le Duc
Mary Ellen, Mary Ellen, hostess extraordinaire
A shaker and a mover, throws parties with such flair
You've carved a niche in our neighborhood,
We've always wondered where
You snatched your effervescence,
and your energy to share.
Mary Ellen, Mary Ellen, whatever shall we do?
When Halloween comes knocking
on our doors in just a week or two,
For you and Jim and Lib and Paul
have worked so hard 'tis true
That ghosts and goblins will be lost,
and may become unglued.
Mary Ellen, Mary Ellen, life will never be the same
For we will lose a friend so dear, a helper in the rain
A unique force for friendship in a special neighborhood
Someone who makes things happen, a doer of much good
And even though we'll miss you and your beloved Jim
We pray for blessings from above
as you move to Galveston.
