Mollie enjoyed spending time with friends and was an avid bingo player, a pastime she continued to enjoy until just weeks before her passing. Those who knew her remember her as social, humorous, and deeply rooted in her community.
Mollie passed surrounded by family, and her loved ones take comfort in their faith that she is now at peace.
