Mary Lou Ellen Smith
Jerry and family, Mary Lou's death causes great sadness. The loss is painful, but how well we know she is with her loving Father, Jesus Christ. Mary Lou was such a beautiful person, not only in appearance, but her spirit was one of beauty, caring, and kindness among many other gifts she shared with us all. I always felt peace about Mary Lou going home to her Lord as she had told me she was not afraid to die, as she knew where she was going and she would be with her Heavenly Father. We will always remember this remarkable person. Her legacy of life will always be a tribute to her and to us all. I have deep sorrow for you, Jerry, for your daughter, son, and grandchildren. I know Mary Lou will miss Sadie and likewise, but Jesus is her life now. Thank you dear family for sharing her with us all. Chuck and Sally Rohrer

Kathy, I am so sorry for the loss of your mother. As Diana Kelly said, I too have alot of great memories as teenagers, when the three of us were inseperable and spent many weekends at your house, your home was my second home and I truly loved your mother, she was a great person. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.

Jery and family: Mary Lou is now smiling down on us in peace and pain free. We always had to keep each other posted on our latest hair products because we always knew there was one more new one out there :-) I loved her cute little voice and priceless smile. May God wrap his loving arms around all of you and comfort you at this time. HUGS :-)
