She went on to marry Rollie Snow after graduation (January 16, 1945) and together they had four beautiful children. Mary Lou was a long-time member of the Utopia First Baptist Church were she was a Sunday School teacher and volunteered at Vacation Bible School during the summers. Her hobbies included playing the piano and guitar, singing, reading and cooking. Her specialties were chocolate and lemon meringue pies – as well as tea-rings during the Christmas season.

 The family would like to extend a very special thank-you to the wonderful staff at Veranda Senior Living for the amazing care that they showed to Mary Lou (Granny as she wanted them to call her) over the last two and a half years. We would also like to thank Uvalde Hospice for the one and half years of care showered upon her, especially the fresh flowers that were delivered to her room every Monday. That was the highlight of her week! She loved to report what flowers she received to her family members.
