Deepest sympathy to the family of Lou Snelson. During my first year as a school librarian in Decatur, Lou was assigned as my mentor, and I spent a day shadowing her, as well as staying in touch when I had questions. She had so many down-to-earth suggestions, and I enjoyed being her colleague for the rest of her time in Decatur Public Schools. My thoughts are with you in your loss.
I am so sorry I can’t attend Lou’s service, but send my sincere sympathy to her family. She and Roger go back a lot of years as old friend!
Family of Mary Lou: My husband and I taught at Niantic Harristown with Mary Lou for several years and we became fast friends. What a lovely lady she was, so full of grace!! We had not seen her for many years but will hold her in our hearts always. May the Divine Healing Presence comfort you at this time.
PriscillaI’m so sorry for the loss of your mom. You have lots of great memories to hold close to your heart.I’m sorry I can’t make it to her celebration of life but I am thinking of you all.
Lou was a dear friend. Mary Jo Comerford
