Mary Lou Vergara Memorial Service - Saturday, September 13 at 11:00 AM Eastern time - zoom link below
From: Margaret Gergen <margergen@gmail.com>
The celebration of life for Mary Lou Vergara is this Sat, 9-13-25. It would have been Mary Lou's 80th birthday!
The service will be at 11 am Eastern time at St. Francis UMC in Cary, North Carolina where Mary Lou lived for the last several years since her retirement. I am here is Cary for the celebration and understand that Mollie Wallsteat and Rosa Torres are also on their way to attend. Mollie and Rosa worked with both Mary Lou and me during the years we were at the North Shore in Evanston (we called it our dream team!).
For those of you who knew Mary Lou, who appreciated and admired her great gifts and who would like to be here in person, but can't, the service will be streamed via the link below.
Please join us, if you are able, to celebrate the completed life of this remarkable woman. We were fortunate to have had her in our lives!

Thank you Margaret for the link to Mary Lou Vergara's memorial at 11am today. My experience of all her family and friends who participated in the Methodist liturgy and shared hymns was deeply honoring of this true soul on her 80th birthday.We are all lifted into joyfulness having the gift of this connection with each other celebrating memories of her completed life.May you be well, Charles Allen Lingo Jr On Thursday, September 11, 2025 at 06:42:08 PM EDT, Karen Snyder via Dialogue <dialogue@lists.wedgeblade.net> wrote: From: Margaret Gergen <margergen@gmail.com> The celebration of life for Mary Lou Vergara is this Sat, 9-13-25.

Thank you Margaret and everyone who came to her memorial and everyone sending greetings. The Vergara family surely misses the gracious, caring, kind Mary Lou whom we love and cherish. She’s been a glue to our family solidarity and embodies Christ-like life. Grace and Peace🙏 On Sat, Sep 13, 2025 at 7:05 AM clingojr--- via Dialogue < dialogue@lists.wedgeblade.net> wrote:
