While in New London, Mollylou was a member of the Kearsarge Community Presbyterian Church and the New London Garden Club. After Millard's passing in 2018, she spent the last 4 years at the Harvest Hill Assisted Living community in Lebanon, NH. She enjoyed reading, gardening, walking and quilting.

In addition to her husband, Mollylou is also predeceased by her brother William B. Bendure, who was killed in the Battle of the Bulge.
