Mary Helen Hennerich

Mary Helen Hennerich, born on March 4, 1926, passed away peacefully on August 3, 2025. A cherished member of her family and community, Mary lived a life characterized by resilience, compassion, and an unwavering commitment to those she loved. A remarkable woman, Mary dedicated many years of her career to AG Edwards, where her professionalism and commitment were deeply valued and respected.

Beyond her professional accomplishments, Mary was an avid seamstress whose creativity flourished in every stitch. Her passion for sewing was complemented by her love for travel; she embraced the world with enthusiasm, exploring diverse cultures and landscapes. In her quieter moments, she found joy in gardening, tending to her plants with the same care and dedication she applied to all aspects of her life. Reading was another cherished pastime, enriching her mind.

A devout individual, Mary’s strong Catholic faith was foundational to her life's philosophy and guided her through both triumphs and tribulations.

Mary is survived by her beloved sister, Laura (nee Ubben) Nothstine; her brother, Hermen Ubben; along with a host of other family members and friends who will remember her for her kindness, and perseverance.

In her lifetime, Mary faced challenges with grace and strength. She was preceded in death by several family members who were integral to her life's journey. Her mother, Emma Mary Milkoski, along with two fathers—Gustav Haug and Herman J. Ubben, Jr.—shaped her early years. Mary is also proceeded in death by her first husband; Frederick Margenau; and her second husband, John Hennerich; her brothers, Charles Haug and Richard Ubben, and her sister, Jeanette Ubben-Durbin. Each of these individuals left a lasting impact on Mary’s heart, and their memories will continue to inspire those who loved her.

Mary’s presence will be deeply missed, but her legacy of love and kindness will endure through the lives she touched.
