Mary Keehan Robinson's Obituary
I, born Mary Ursula Keehan, to Mary Lauterbach and Edward Grant Keehan, in Norwalk, CT, on May 31, 1935, returned to my Eternal Home, with Jesus Christ, on February 12, 2020. My physical body was laid to rest on February 17, 2020, at Pinecrest Memorial Gardens (E. J. Fielding Funeral Home), Covington, LA. My spirit is “…Absent from the body, and present with the Lord.” (2 Cor. 5:7-8).
I leave behind my daughter, Terri E. Robinson, and my son, Donald G. Albares, and my step-daughter and friend, Patti R. Scuderi. I am also survived by my daughter-in-law, Ressie, my grand-daughters, Adrienne and Chelsea, four great-grandchildren, a multitude of nieces and nephews, and far too many friends, loved ones, and employees (past and present) to name, especially those who were a part of my illness, showering me with the gifts of their love and prayers. I especially want to thank Shannon Cormier, for the huge part she played in my life, and the caring sacrifices she made to make my final years as comfortable as possible.
Known to most as “Ms. Mary”, I was in the Fire Sprinkler Industry for over 60 years. I was God’s steward of leadership in American Sprinkler Co., Inc., and tried, every day, to apply our motto, “Our company serves the Lord, who gives life. Our industry works to save lives.”
If I can leave anything of value to each of you in my life, I would leave you the blessing of my relationship with my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. He truly is the Way, the truth, and the Life (John 14:6). And, I would leave you the blessing of the one book that makes it all come together, The Holy Bible - read it; know it; stow it in your hearts.
God Bless,
Ms. Mary
