Mary Louise Howard Lunsford

She was a member of the First Baptist Church.
Mary loved traveling, gardening, crocheting, and knitting, she was an excellent seamstress.
Mary was simply Mom, Grandma in every way. She was strong, stern, soft, loving, a teacher of life. No TV's, computers or games, work day in, day out, up and at it every day. Plain and simple life, work hard first then play. But there was always time for a smile and a hug. A simple person with a powerful message, hard work and honesty is what makes you as a person, not material things. Simply be true to yourself and everyone else, and you'll be fine. We love you mom and grandma, forever. Thank you for your simple lesson, LIFE.
