Mary Frances Berthold

I had the pleasure of meeting Mary at Olen´s wedding and she was a incredible woman. My condolences to the family and prayers to all.

I was at one of the very last games at Busch II and was at the customer service desk seeing if they would send me a scorecard from the very last game. They couldn't do it, but guess who was standing there, overheard the conversation and offered to help me? Mary. We shared many, many e-mails and texts about the Cardinals over the years. Mary would let me and my kids sit in her season ticket seats when we could come up from Texas, and many times would join us. Section 247, Row 2. Great...

I first met Mary in Tokyo, where she rescued me when the hotel informed me that my credit card limit was reached. I hardly knew how to use a credit card at the time. Over the years she became one of those people that one respects, trusts, and goes to for advice. Thank you.

I worked along side of Mary for many years. She was a great manager, and maintained a high regard by both her staff and her peers. A great asset for Monsanto.

When Mary lived in Belgium she hired me into Monsanto and since that day she guarded over us like we were family. She was my first manager and provided me with all the bagage needed to build out the nice career and position I have today. She was part of almost all important events in our 'younger' life; marriage, birth of our 2 children, moving to St.Louis, ... She has left a lasting impression on us and made me to the person I have become today! Thank you for that Mary, you will be...

Rest in peace, Mary, and sympathy and peace to your family.
