  1. All of us at St. Marianne Cope Parish send our sincere sympathy to the family of Mary Lou. She was such a blessing to our Church and Community in the many endeavors she pursued through good works and outreach. Mary Lou will be missed and remembered. God bless you all as you mourn her loss on this earth.

  2. Mary Lou was such a help as we established a Visitation ministry at what was Good Shepherd parish. She helped train others to visit the hospitals and organized that part of the ministry. She made me a lovely afghan when I married my husband. She will always be remembered fondly. So sorry for your loss.

  3. I only knew Mary Lou for a short time frame when I visited her at her home.Covid interrupted the visitation so I hadn’t seen her in well over a year.I am not sure if I knew how instrumental she was in initiating visitation ministry at GS since I went to St.Joseph’s.Now the avid knitter part I knew.
    What a lovely person! You could tell right away that she was good hearted.I will miss our visits.May you be comforted in you mourning by Our Lord knowing that Mary Lou is at peace.
