Mary and Wilfred raised three kids, with Bossier City as their principle residence though those wonderful years. After 37 years of marriage, Wilfred passed away in 1986. In 1987, Mary made connections with an old friend Al, whom she married and they lived again in Bossier City for most of 19 years of marriage until his death. Mary loved Bossier City. It was and always will be her home. She was a proud graduate from Bossier High School in 1947. She was a member of the Bossier Mothers Club, the Shreveport Petroleum Club, and the Magale Foundation. She retired from the oil and gas industry, serving as an Executive Secretary for John F. Magale for many years. She was the President of MBCM Interests until her death.
Mary-Mimi, to all those who loved her-loved to travel and toured the country with several motorhome groups for many years. Mimi was the consummate homemaker and enjoyed hosting large family gatherings. The holidays were her favorite time to get the family together. She was loved by those who knew her and will be remembered as a caring wife, mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother.
The family suggests that donations may be made to DIVAS (Post Office Box 5021, Bossier City, LA 71171), a charity that supports ladies to better themselves in life.
