Consider Mary Agnes Mullaney. >> Mary Agnes Mullaney, better known as Pink, was born in Milwaukee in 1927. She passed away earlier this week. >> Amazing woman. A very gentle, kind person. >> Survived by her 6 children and 17 grandchildren, her family knew a normal obituary just wouldn't work for an extraordinary woman. >> She was so unique and we wanted to reflect that. How can we be like her and carry her pinkness across? >> With real life stories now serving as words to live by in her obituary, go to church with a chicken sandwich in your purse. Give the chicken sandwich to your homeless friend after mass. Go to a nursing home. Kiss everyone. >> Invite new friends to thanksgiving dinner. Bonus points if they're from another country. Never say mean things about people. They are simply poor souls to pray for. >> Days after Pink's death in a small room tucked away from hundreds of visitors at Feerick Funeral Home, her family reflects. We'd go to the grocery store with her and we'd say before we get out of car, promise you won't talk to everybody and kiss every baby and I can't make that promise. It's because Pink's life was devoted to others. >> From, you know, the North Shore doctor to the-- to the homeless person, they were all people in my other's eyes. >> The obituary explains it best. Allow the homeless to keep warm in your car while you are at mass. Take magazines you've already read to your doctor's office for others to enjoy, but do not tear off the mailing label because if someone wants to contact me, that'd be nice. >> She really reached out to people and they reached back. >> If Pink didn't see you on the street or meet you in the grocery line, chances are she wrote to you. >> She'll see your name and address some place and she'll write a card to them. >> Thousands of letters, some for fun, others serious. One of those letters, Stan Kenwood says, he'll never let go of. >> Our tap dance inside, but still be upright. Lots of love and then she goes on to write another paragraph. That was the essence of Pink. >> We need a lot more people like her. >> The life that she lived I-- we all thought should be an example to others. So now, family, friends, even total strangers gather to remember. Those who have taken her lessons to heart will continue to ensure that a cold drink will be left out for the overheated garbage collector and mail carrier, to choose to believe the best about people no matter what. ```json {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"VideoObject","name":"Quirky Obituary for Woman's Memorial Service","description":"Quirky Obituary for Woman's Memorial Service","thumbnailUrl":"https://cdn.jwplayer.com/v2/media/ebgzpKeh/poster.jpg?width=720","uploadDate":"2013-09-09T19:07:46.000Z","contentUrl":"https://cdn.jwplayer.com/manifests/ebgzpKeh.m3u8","embedUrl":"https://time.com/video/ebgzpKeh/","duration":"PT2M33S","potentialAction":{"@type":"SeekToAction","target":"https://time.com/video/ebgzpKeh/?jw_start={seek_to_second_number}","startOffset-input":"required name=seek_to_second_number"}} ```
