Mary Lou was a graduate Leipsic High School. Mary Lou was a faithful member of McComb Methodist Church. Her greatest accomplishment in her eyes was her children. Family was very important in Mary Lou's life. Mary Lou crocheted, making afghans for her family and making sure each one of grandchildren and great-grandchildren had one. Mary Lou was also known for her homemade noodles, a recipe that no one can match. She also enjoyed admiring the beautiful nature from her couch. Mary Lou was sparky and calm and more than everything, being a homemaker and supporting her family was the most important part of her life. She always made sure the boys had a good meal when they came home from working in the fields.
