Mary Jo Stahl

Mary Jo Stahl passed away Thursday, July 14, 2022, at the age of 81. She was born on September 3, 1940, to the late Joseph and Mae Baumgartner in Covington, KY. Mary Jo was the beloved wife of the late Robert E. Stahl; loving mother of Deborah (Thomas) Ruter, Victoria (Jeff) Seng, and Karen (Keith Grossenbacher) Stahl O’Hara; cherished grandmother of Ethan and Evan Ruter and Jacob, Lauren, and Noah Seng; treasured great-grandmother of Jamison and Lucas; devoted companion of Jamie, her Irish Setter; and dear aunt of numerous nieces and nephews. In addition to her parents and husband, she was preceded in death by her brothers: Lee and Art Baumgartner. Mary Jo worked diligently as a secretary in the medical field for many years. She was an excellent seamstress, often designing clothes and even creating her daughter Debbie’s wedding dress. Mary Jo was an advocate for therapy dogs, and proudly trained the first registered therapy dog in Cincinnati, Ohio. She will be remembered for her deep love of dogs, and we trust that she was joyfully reunited with her companions who went before her at the rainbow bridge.
