Mary Lou (Cole) Keefer, born December 21, 1946, to William and Dorothy (Gorrell) Cole, departed her earthly home for her mansion in Heaven on May 23, 2022.

Mary loved the Lord above all and in her words, was ready for "Him" to move her from this field to His field. Mary was preceded in death by her parents, and brother, William H. (Willie) Cole, who was more than likely waiting to tell her all he has seen and done since entering those pearly gates.

Left in this field to cherish her in memory is her husband of 55 years, Dennis; sons, Den (Tracy), and Donald (Amanda); brothers and sisters, Glen (Paulette) Cole, Betty Duncan, and James Cole; granddaughters, Brittani Allen, Brandi Howard, Emily (Jacob) Cunningham, Katie (Noah) Darnold, Laura (Ethan Tabata) Hudson, and the light of her life, Jaelyn Garnes; great grandchildren, Waylon, Kolter, Hailie and several nieces and nephews.

A memorial service will be held 1 p.m., Sunday, May 29, 2022, at Shatto Tabernacle Church (1235 Shatto Road, Ripley), with Pastor Doug Mitchell officiating.
