I will always remember Mary Lou!  I enjoyed our special visits we had and she was one of the nicest ladies that I have had the pleasure of taking care of.  I am glad she is at Peace.  She thought the world of her entire family and I know she is smiling down on all of you.  I am lucky I got to know her if only for a short time.  In Sympathy ~  Bonnie Szurgot (Madonna Living Community Assisted Living).

I was able to attend the wake and funeral for my Aunt Mary Lou.  What a beautiful service the funeral was.  I was especially touched by the letter the family wrote and the priest read at the end of the Mass.  It summed up her life so well.  She truly was an inspiration to us all in how to handle some very tough things.  She kept her faith strong through all her trials.  Her crown will have many jewels, as she was a real "pearl".  I will miss her smile, hugs and love.   Many blessings on all the family.  Marge

My sympathy to the Kuisle family in the loss of Mary Lou.  I lived above her at 1901 for almost 5 years.  I always got a kick out of her thinking she was too loud watching her TV at night--this came up after I asked about my piano playing.  She made alot of potato salad for family get togethers.  :)    Her family meant everything to her.  She was a sweet, loving, caring lady, and i enjoyed many visits with her.  

Your family is in my thoughts and prayers in your time of loss.

I will truly miss Mary Lou.  She was my Great-Aunt and we used to be something of pen pals.  I always loved seeing a letter from her in my mail box, she had such an elegant way with words, she was always so interested in my life and had such kind, gentle and loving things to say and memories to share.   I feel I ALWAYS came away from her letters a bigger, better, stronger, wiser, pious & sensible person due to some wise words she always managed to enlighten me with.  I aspire to be like her and I miss her.

My sincerest condolences in your time of loss.  I remember her as being a good, kind woman.  God bless.

I will keep her in my prayers.  She was a special person. 

My thoughts and prayers are with you. She will always remain in my heart as a beautiful, faith filled Christian woman who just loved people with a genine grace. I had been thinking of her for about the last two weeks and had planned on visiting her on Sunday and was sad to hear of her death. I truly believe she is smiling on us and wants you to know she is at peace with our Lord and her loved ones who went ahead of her. I think she also wants you to smile knowing that she is happy in her eternal home....Love and prayes, Marilyn Baker

We are so sorry to hear about your mom. She was a truly special person. I will always remember the days we spent at your house as a child - they were wonderful!

Our thoughts and prayers are with you all.

My Mother, Hazel, was a very good friend of Mary Lou.  I am very sorry to hear about her passing.  She will be dearly missed by your entire family.  I am presently in Chicago and will not be able to attend the services.

I have many fond memories of Mary Lou, both as we were growing up and also visiting these past few years on my whirlwind trips back to Minnesota.  It was always wonderful spending a few hours with her, reminiscing about the good old days and the family.  She was always the same warm, gracious individual, regardless of her own pain, and radiated love for everyone.  I know your family will miss her immeasurably.  My condolences and love to you all.

I will always remember her as "Grandma Kuisle".  Whenever we saw her she had a smile on her face and she would ask about our three kids (by name).  Lauri and I will miss her.  Prayers to her and her wonderful family.

I am sorry for your loss but I think Mary Lou would agree she has finally been able to join the rest of her angels and I am sure she will enjoy looking out for all of you.

Mary Lou was very dear to me and I always enjoyed listening to the stories she told about my mother , Irene , and herself when they were young. she was always such a pleasant person to be around. I remember when I had the opportunity to go to the family get together at Whitewater she took me around and introduced me to everyone there and it made me feel very welcome.

I will miss her.

My heart goes out to all of you.  It is such a difficult thing, to lose one's mother.  Mary Lou was such a wonderful aunt and person.  We always felt warmly welcomed in her home.  Can you just imagine the amazing reunion that is going on in heaven right now?!  I feel so blessed to have had Aunt Mary Lou touch my life with her sweetness and humor.  My prayers are with you.

Love, Carol

Rita -

I am going to be out of town and will not be able to pay my respects to your wonderful Mom, but I wanted you to know I am thinking of you and your family.  I so enjoyed meeting your mother, she truly was a remarkable lady and I know you will miss her.  In time your wonderful memories will replace the sadness you feel today. 

God Bless you and your family -

What a great woman, Aunt Mary Lou was!! I am so happy to have her for my aunt.  She always put others first, always asking about our family and what an amazing memory she had. 

She always made me laugh with her Irish sense of humor, much like my moms.  My mom, Irene and her were great pals going way back to their Chatfield days and similar upbringing.  She told our family a lot of stories about the two of them doing fun and funny things together, stories that we had never heard.

Our family had many great times at your farm, with Aunt Mary Lou always ready to serve up cookies and lemonade for our gang.

She is truly one of a kind and will be missed by many.

Thoughts and prayers go out to all of you.

Love,

Diane and Joe

I want you all to know that I was always so proud to say that Mary Lou was my Godmother!  She was a very special lady and I was so thankful that I was able to see her and tell her that in June when I visited.  My memories of your mom will be something I will keep close in my heart! God bless you in the next few days!! Eileen
