Known for her caring and kind heart, Mary Jean was the adored Matriarch of the Bagin family. She had the brightest personality and could light up any room. She loved Lake Keesus, boating, and filling her home with family and friends. Her strong Catholic faith was demonstrated through her involvement within the St. James community and beyond. She enjoyed her card club and "investment club" adventures to Las Vegas and throughout the Midwest. An avid Disney fan, she took many trips with her husband and family and created memories that will be cherished forever. She was an animal lover, and never met a cat or dog (or goldfish) that she did not want to bring home. She loved her TV programs, 'I Love Lucy' and 'The Andy Griffith Show', which she shared with her grandchildren. Mary was a dedicated wife and loved her husband immensely. Their marriage is one that will be looked up to for generations to come.
