In loving memory of
Mary Louise Donaldson
September 9, 1931 - February 10, 2022
Mary "Louise" Donaldson, age 90, of Washington, went to her heavenly home at 12:20 am on Thursday, February 10, 2022, with her family by her side.
She was born on September 9, 1931, in Montgomery to Walter Joseph and Dora Agnes (Clements) O'Brian. Louise was a 1949 graduate of Montgomery High School. She had worked at GC Murphys and was a fixture at Main Street Pharmacy for over 32 years. Louise had the kindest heart and was beloved by all who knew her. She was a fantastic cook; many would say she was the best cook ever.
She is survived by her husband, Charles Overton Donaldson, Jr.; her children, David (Tami) Donaldson of Washington, Lynn (Mike) Healy of Montgomery, and Amy (Kevin) Pollard of Dallas, Texas; her grandchildren: Julie (Scot) Stewart, Brian (Jill) Colvin, Katie (Jeremy) Wininger, Aaron (Molly) Healy, Rachael (Eric Walford) Donaldson, Renee (Justin) Huff, Zach Pollard, and Madeline Pollard; her great grandchildren: Jenna and Savannah Stewart; Mara, Graham, and Ben Colvin; Nolan Wininger; Lainie Donaldson; and Carli and Jase Huff; and two brothers, James A. (Carol) O'Brian of Montgomery, and Pat (Judy) O'Brian of Arlington, Texas.
Louise was preceded in death by her parents, her sister, Patty Norris, and her brother, Joseph O'Brian.
Visitation will be from 4:00pm to 8:00pm on Friday, February 18, at Ed Lee Mortuary North Chapel. A mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated at 11:00 am on Saturday, February 19, at St Peter Catholic Church in Montgomery with Father Sudhakar as celebrant. Burial will follow in St. John Cemetery.
