Mary Lou LaBissoniere

We are deeply sorry for your loss ~ Gunderson Funeral Home - Madison

I extend my deepest condolences for the loss of your beloved Mother and my Aunt Mary Lou. I had the privilege of spending time with her during family gatherings during my youth. Her radiant smile and gentle voice of acknowledgment remain etched in my memory. College and marriage took me to different places and our contact with the family was limited to verbal communication. I was unaware of her remarkable accomplishments as a swimmer, having continued to swim until the age of 93. Her dedication to this sport is truly inspiring. I swim three days each week, and it brings me immense joy, as I am certain it did for her. She has been added to my list of wine friends, and whenever I indulge in a glass of wine, I choose a deceased friend or family member to share the glass with me. (Well, I do have to drink the whole glass.) Aunt Mary Lou will be deeply missed, but her memory will forever be cherished. With love and respect, Susie LaBissoniere Mueller

Denny, so sorry to hear of your mom’s passing… Thoughts and prayers to you and your family

Dear Dennis, Michael, Tom and Tim, Linda and I wish to express our sincere condolences to you and your family members on the loss of your wonderful mother. She certainly lived a long and fulfilling life of love and service. I recall Aunt Mary Lou offering her caring concern for me and my family members when she, your dad and you “kids” visited in Milwaukee on holidays, picnics and other events. Your mom always had a bright and beautiful smile while expressing her joy in getting together on those and other occasions. It was always a great pleasure spending time with her your dad and all of you awesome “cousins!” Indeed you had fine parents who raised you right! Although it’s now time for your mom to rest, we can all rejoice in anticipation of seeing her again in the resurrection! May God provide you with His deepest comfort and blessings at this time and in the days ahead. Warmest regards John LaBissoniere
