My name is Sharon Craney and my husband Jim & I live in Mazomanie. To be honest I did not your Mother Mary Lou but sure she was a wonderful Mother. Where I'm going with this, I knew your dad, Don if he worked at Springs Window Fashion, for several years. Another thing I know he was a wonderful man and bet he was a great Father. He was always dressed to perfection, and just bet your mom had a lot to do with that. How lucky your family was? Don treated everyone equal even women. From what I gather from this obit they were both beautiful people inside and out. God bless your entire family and do everything to keep your family together. Gather for holidays and yes keep talking about your mom & dad. So many fond memories of your Dad.
