Mary Jean Morro, age 73, of Thomson, IL, passed away in her home with her family by her side, on March 5, 2025. Her family will celebrate her life in a private way.
Mary was born August 28, 1951, in Chicago, IL, the daughter of Harvey and Vivian (Ruskey) Andrews. She attended Chicago public schools and went on to marry Herbert Morro. Together they had three sons.
Mary operated a bar in Chicago for decades, and worked various factory jobs during that time. Following the dissolution of her marriage, Mary was convinced by her mother and sisters to move to the Thomson area, where they had made their home. She started seeing a man named Al Cecil, and together they decided to move across the state. Once Mary witnessed the area for herself, she didn't need much convincing. She felt freed by the open landscape, and the beauty of the Mississippi River Valley.
Here in Thomson, she became manager of the Casey's, and loved playing Bingo and other card games with friends and family. Potters Campgr
