Mary Louise Krizon
Aunt Lou was born in Fenton, Iowa to Fred (Fritz) and Myrtle Arbogast on November 8, 1907. She passed away at the age of 101 on January 21, 2009. She married Andrew Krizon on March 4, 1944. They did not have any children of their own so their nieces and nephews and the next generations became theirs. Aunt Lou's birthday cakes were specially chosen for every child's party. Uncle Andy passed away September 18, 1968 and as she said, 24 years was never enough time. An independent woman who got a driver's license at 60, a strong Democrat who proudly voted in every election and stayed informed on current events. She and her sister in law Helen Stevenson and her sister Edie enjoyed the senior dances and becoming the junk food seniors at McDonalds. Louise took great care of her `baby sister' Edie.
