Obituary

Mary (Huber) Brown

November 25, 2020 | 2 comments

Mary (Huber) Brown, Age 83, of Holmen, passed away peacefully on November 22, 2020. Mary was born on July 12, 1937 to George & Gladys Huber. Although this is a sad day for anyone that knew Mary, it is the day she joined Jesus, her mom and her “doggie” Maggie.

Mary was committed to her faith. One of her favorite scriptures was “This is the day the lord has made, let us rejoice and be glad in it”. Mary’s favorite hymn was “How Great Thou Art”. She was a giving person and often put others needs before her own. One of the ways she did that was by giving to those less fortunate. She also volunteered and helped organize the La Crosse Community Thanksgiving Dinner. Mary loved and took pride in her gardening and could often be found perfecting her yard rain or shine. She enjoyed spending time teaching her daughter and grandson the art of canning, everything from applesauce, (with red hots of course) to stewed tomatoes. Mary wore many hats over the years as a bookkeeper from Montgomery Wards, Good Year Tire, Kwik Trip and more.

Mary is survived by her children Mark, Lynn (Terry), grandson Mark (who held a very special place in her heart), her brother Mike (Shirley), sister Judy and many nieces and nephews. She was preceded in death by her parents George & Gladys, siblings Rosemary, Donna, Marge, Joe, Dick & Steve, and her doggie Maggie.

Mary had asked that in lieu of flowers, memorials be sent to the Coulee Region Humane Society.

Given the current pandemic, to keep everyone safe and healthy there will not be a traditional visitation and service. Mary will be laid to rest in Gate of Heaven Cemetery.

Condolences

    I was saddened to learn of the passing of dear “Mary Across The Street”??❤️?.
    A very special lady and friend to our family. So many exchanges of help and good news, along with the not so good news.
    I’d like to think that the good natured give and take and back and forth is now continuing in Heaven!???❤️?

    My Deepest Sympathy- Mary and I were friends and coworkers many years ago. We were cashiers at Gundersen Clinic. We attended many weddings showers, etc. together. Mary was a great friend and coworker.
    Later, while working , at Eversole, with Terry I learned his wife is Lynn, Mary’s daughter. We had some good times.

    My Deepest Sympathy Lynn and Terry!
