Mary Lou was a valued member of our communications team at Charleston Area Medical Center. Always a bright light in any setting. A lovely lady with a wonderful personality. Part of management but always concerned about how patients were cared for. Our condolences to the family.

Never a dull moment when you were in her presence. Always smiling and saying something funny. I will miss her terribly.

a truly remarkable and resilient woman. Over a year, I had the privilege of visiting Mary weekly, and we shared a close and special bond. Every time I saw her, her face would light up with joy, and her sweet nature was a constant source of warmth. Mary faced her challenges with grace and positivity, touching the lives of everyone who knew her. She will be deeply missed, and her legacy of kindness and strength will live on in our hearts. Rest in peace, Mary
