Mary Lou Fischer

Louie was born May 3, 1954, in Anaconda. She was a great person with a caring, loving heart who took great pride in everything she did from gardening to baking.

Mary Lou was a also wonderful artist. She enjoyed making homemade crafts. She loved spending time with her children and baking bread with them. She would always take in people less fortunate and provide them with care. Louie did not have much, but what she did have she would share. Family also expressed that Louie was upbeat, smiling and had a positive attitude. She was loved by many family and friends and will be missed very much.

Louie was preceded in death by her parents, Iver and Catherine (Hartmiller) Olsen.

She is survived by her three daughters, Shelley Fischer, Jakie (Fischer) Clemons and Paula Fischer; son, James Fischer; brothers, Sidney Olsen, Terry Olsen, Iver Olsen, Wayne Olsen and Kenny Olsen; sisters, Nina Rush, Zelma Fode and Gloria Rostad, and two grandchildren.
