Mary Metzger Obituary
Mom worked for Laurel Schools for several years, making sure all the kids had a clean school to attend. Mom was also known for all the homemade goods and the canning she did. She was also known and loved for the spoiling of her grandkids and great-grandkids.
Mary Ellen was preceded in death by her husband Richard, son Leslie, daughter-in-law Carol, grandson Jeffrey, her parents Henry and Mary, and her brothers and sisters- Ted, Anna, Emma, and June. She is survived by two sons Steven of Billings and his daughters- Crystal (Travis) Nagel of Laurel, and Amber (Scott) Nelson of Medicine Lake, Montana- and Pat (Diane)of Superior, Montana and his daughters- Mandi (Coop) Saroglou of South Korea, and Malori (Mitch) Strang of Missoula- and numerous great grandkids: Baylee, Abby, Steele, and Shyloe Nagel, Alexa, Rebecca, and Saige Nelson, Fletcher Strang, Leilani Hunter, Gabe, Castiel, and Zahariel Saroglou, and great great granddaughter Lennyn Wicks and one great great grandson on the way.
The family would like to thank Delores Reisinger for always being there to listen to Mom and Stillwater Hospice for the care they provided to Mom. And a special thanks to great-granddaughter Abby Nagel for staying with her for the last six months.
Per Mary Ellen's wishes, no service will be held.
