I enjoyed working with Marylou while at Glenshire NH. I was actually doing most of the work while she tried to scare me away with those eyes! I saw right through her! What a sweet heart! Ill have to wait to get to Heaven to try the tamales she promised me!!

My Aunt Mary Lou to me seemed to be the happiest person on earth she was always and I mean always in a good mood and always smiling. I think I learned to be happy from her. She never let things get her down. Oh and can she tell some jokes she always made me laugh. I remember her telling me "Life is what you make it mija, so be happy" And I've tried to live my life by those words. People say to me "you're always happy and smiling". Not too many people seen me mad. Aunt Mary Lou you will always be in my heart forever, may you now rest in peace and be forever happy in Gods Kingdom!! Love you Debbie
