I've grown Grandma Mary's for a number of years now. The large yield of large tomatoes is great for canning tomato sauce. Grandma Mary has not performed as well at the master gardeners demonstration garden which is located 700 feet lower than my hilltop garden and which gets less sunlight. I did have some early blight last year, but I still had a good crop.
