The Ceremony
“Mal called herself a cockroach saying, ‘CF keeps trying to kill me but I don’t die.’ My daughter did more in 25 years than many do in a lifetime.”
Diane Shader Smith,
Mallory’s Mom
“Forced to grow up early, she was always an old soul. Unlike many teenagers and twenty-somethings, she never acted like she was in a dress rehearsal. Life was opening night for Mallory.”
Mark Smith,
Mallory’s Dad
