Mary Louise Lansdale, 87, of Brownsboro passed away on December 14, 2024 in Tyler.
Mary was born July 29, 1937 in Sardis, Mississippi. She was happily married to the love of her life, John, for 70 years. Mary worked as a nurse at Trinity Mother Frances in Tyler for many years before becoming a school nurse for Brownsboro ISD until her retirement. When school would let out for the summer, Mary would keep all of her grandchildren every day. The memories that her nine grandchildren have from those summers will be cherished and remembered forever. In her free time, Mary loved spending time with her family. She loved being outside and enjoyed shopping for all of her great grandchildren. Mary will be remembered for her kind heart and gentle spirit. She was an exceptional mother, grandmother, mother-in-law and wife. She put her family before everything. She will be greatly missed by all who knew her.
Mary is proceeded in death by her loving husband John Lansdale.
