Aunt Mary Lou always had a smile on her face. I loved it when she would said my brother's name "Doug" which to us kids it always sounded like dog. She will always be in my heart! My thoughts and prayers are with you now and forever!

I am forever grateful for something my Aunt Mary Lou did for me in 1969 while I was serving in the US Army stationed in Japan. An explosion i was in caused me to suffer 3rd degree burns on my face and hands. The doctors said I would be scared for life. Aunt Mary Lou held a prayer vigil at her church for me and as a result I have zero scaring. God bless her!

Cindie and family, please accept my heartfelt condolences on the loss of your Mom. I only met her the one time at the Iroquois Legion Post opening but what a lovely lady! She did so much with the Legion and for our vets. God bless her. Sending prayers to all.
