I am sorry for your loss. I met your family and Mary Lou during my visitations at Lake Vista during dinnertime while visiting my dear friend. Your mother would reach out to hold hands.
She held on with a grip because she wanted to still feel the connections with people. She knew she was well loved and cared for. She raised good, thoughtful children who were there for her when she needed them. Life is a journey and I am glad that I got to meet Mary Lou and her family. Just remember, her memories continue through you. God Bless.
