Very sorry to read of Mary Lou’s passing. She was an inspiration to many, mentor to a few and friend to all. I had many great laughs with Mary Lou and am honored to have met her.

When I think of Mary Lou, the first word that comes to mind is “Grace”. The way she cherished her Church, Family and Friends was truly admirable. She led our group with love, friendship, caring and a trust that can only come from her ever strengthening strength if her Faith in God. She will live forever in my heart, and will always be and inspiration in trying times.
