Mary Lou was my secretary for some time before she retired from L.M. Berry & Company. She was a delightful person, and so very helpful to me on many levels. I recall her love for her grandson and her anticipation of bowling night. We have exchanged cards over the years and I remember her very fondly. When I think of The Berry Company, I think of extraordinary people like Mary Lou. I have a couple of very funny stories about this dear lady, and maybe I’ll share them someday.

Mary Lou was a lovely gal.  A superior worker at The Berry Company and always very kind to me startng in 1998 when I worked for Elmer Smith on the 3ed floor as did Mary Lou until she retired after many years of service.  I wish her peace.  Rest well Mary Lou.🙏♥️   Marilyn-Potts-,Gabrielson

Mary Lou was my flea market and girl's day out friend, like a older sister we talked about everything and anything whenever we got together. As we walked through life's experiences together we laughed and sometimes cried, but she was always willing to lend an ear and tell me one of her great stories to cheer me up.  Her stories were so wonderfully entertaining that I introduced other friends to her so they too could enjoy her particular viewpoint on her working life, and other things.  I never tired of hearing her stories, over and over!  Godspeed Mary Lou. 

Mary had an understanding of others.   I worked with Mary and she was always KIND  to me! Glad we met!     Thank You for all your Kindness !                      Asher Miller              

Mary Lou was a wonderful lady,  She worked for me and the Berry Company her entire career and did an outstanding job.  Always upbeat, fun and focused.  She will be missed
My deepest sympathies.
