We are so sorry to hear of Mary's passing. We won't be able to attend the funeral as we will be in Nebraska. Our thoughts and prayers will be with you in the days ahead. We knew Mary Lou (& Bill) from VFW 9662 where Mary Lou served many years as Auxiliary Treasurer. Over the years, Mary Lou would remind me that she worked with my grandmother at Iowa Packing in the late 50's or early 60's. Always enjoyed working with her in kitchen. Carol
