Visit the Collinsville Dolton Funeral Home - Collinsville website to view the full obituary.

Mary Louise Faith Dardenne was born October 12, 1933, in Wagoner, OK, the daughter of Everette Lee and Gladys Susan Grant Faith. Mary passed away on October 5, 2025, at the amazing age of 91. Mary loved to roller skate when she was young. That’s where you would find her on the weekends and that’s where she met Ted. They dated for several years, then Ted joined the Army. When he came home, she met him in Colorado Springs, and they were married.

Mary was preceded in death by both of her parents and by Ted of 60 years. She is survived by her daughter Pamela Sue and her husband Phil Bordwine, and many extended family members she loved very much.

Mary worked most of her life but the job she enjoyed the most was being the judge’s secretary bailiff, which she retired from at the age of 72. She loved being outdoors and taking care of her flowers. She enjoyed reading mystery novels and always had her bags packed ready to travel anywhere, anytime. Her favorite destination was always Colorado. She was a happy person and fun to be with. She lived life.

Graveside services will be 3:30 pm, Thursday, October 9, 2025, at the Ridgelawn Cemetery with Rev. Eddy Mathews officiating.

Services are under the direction of Collinsville Dolton Funeral Home.
