Mary Lou Richards Obituary
Born May 11, 1956, in Butler, she was the daughter of the late Philip L. Farinelli and Helen Arlene Stewart Farinelli.
When she wasn't building puzzles, decorating for the holidays or planting her flowers, Mary Lou spent a lot of time with her grandchildren, who could always count on her to have chocolate in her purse. She is finally united with the love of her life, her husband, Tom, enjoying their eternal dance.
Mary Lou leaves behind to cherish her memory, her three children, Martha (Robert) Feil, Thomas H. (Sarah) Richards and Jeffry (Stephany) Richards; her six grandchildren, Keith and Klayre Brown, Ethan and Dylan Richards, and Penelope and Oliver Richards; her four sisters, Ruth Baker, Helen Farinelli, Phylis (Dan) Gifford and Margie (Jim) Miller; and many nieces and nephews.
In addition to her parents, Mary Lou was preceded in death by her beloved husband, Thomas E. Richards.
