Our loving wife, mother, grandmother and daughter went home to be with the Lord on Sunday, September 30, 2018. Age 55 years.
She was born on October 25, 1962, the daughter of Louis R. and Maria Elena (Vela) Hernandez, Sr., in Saginaw. MaryLou married Roberto Perez on December 29, 1990. He survives her. She was a member of Agape Faith Fellowship Church and a graduate of Davenport University. MaryLou was employed as a records clerk at the Saginaw County Sheriffs Department.
