"Mary Jane Allison Tejero lost her battle to cancer on January 31, 2011. She was blessed into this world on December 27, 1953 to Dora M. Allison. Later she met and married the love of her life Jorge A. Tejero Sr. Through their 40 years of marriage, Mary gave birth to two beautiful children, Nereida Lynn and Jorge Jr. She often said, &quot;God only gave me two kids, but he gave me the best.&quot; She inherited a new son-in-law, Charles Henderson. After Mary&#39;s first grandchild was born, she quit her job and dedicated the rest of her life to raising her grandchildren, Jordan and Alivia Henderson and Jazlyn Tejero. Lakeview Funeral Home and Crematory, La Porte is caring for the arrangements. Mary earned many awards and degrees in her lifetime. She earned all of her family&#39;s certificates, bachelors and master&#39;s degrees. For without her, none of these would have been accomplished, and all were dedicated in her name. She was the backbone of her family. She was our friend, mama, counselor and doctor. Mom was able to guide us through our lives because she had earned a master&#39;s degree in the school of hard knocks. Mary also enhanced the medical profession by volunteering at IU medical school in the study of Scleroderma. Mary Jane guided her children&#39;s careers. Jorge Jr. became a respiratory therapist and Nereida became a nurse, not knowing she would need both of their skills to help with her many medical battles. Mary loved to see her grandchildren laugh and smile. Mary loved fresh flowers, her dog Cody and her house, but most of all, she loved her husband, kids and family. She was an honest, strong and a dedicated woman. She always spoke with truth and love. She is a survivor. She now survives for all eternity with God, Jorge Jr., Tommie and Ronnie Allison and Esperanza Tejero. Mary&#39;s legacy continues here on earth through all her sisters and brothers: Anthony, Jackie and Tina Allison, Claudestta Thompkins, Deborah (Christian) Payne, Warner and Cathy Henderson. Her aunts, uncles, nieces and nephews and may special friends whom she loved dearly will miss Mary. Thank you for all your support and most of all, prayers. A visitation and viewing will be held from 4-7 p.m., Friday, February 4, 2011 at Lakeview Funeral Home and Crematory, 247 W. Johnson Road, La Porte, IN. According to her wishes, there will be no services and cremation will take place following visitation. Please send condolences to the family at www.LakeviewFHC.com"
