Mary Rose (Lachowsky) Bilgischer

Mary Rose Lachowsky Bilgischer, 84, of Rogers, Arkansas took her last breath June 12, 2024, at home surrounded by family.

The sun rose and the world welcomed Mary on July 30, 1939, in Conway, Arkansas, to the late Alfred Henry & Eugenia (George) Lachowsky, Sr., that day the world became a little brighter.

Mary’s life was guided by her heart and her unwavering faith. She was a loving mother, her family was her world. She proudly carried the name “Guga”. A friend to everyone, Mary was such a selfless woman offering support, wisdom, and love in abundance. Mary loved the Lord and had a strong devotion to the Blessed Mother. She was a devout Catholic and a member of St. Vincent de Paul Catholic Church. She started a rosary ministry spending hours making thousands of rosaries and sending them all over the world.

She is survived by her 5 daughters, Donna Bilgischer, Lisa Lowther (Larry), Elaine Hunter, Janet Sewell (Danny) and Julie Lisle (Chris); her sister Theresa Hoyt (Robert); ten grandchildren, Lance Lowther, Landon Lowther, Martin Haunert, Madison Lisle McDonald, Andrew Lisle, Danielle Sewell Brown, Olivia Lisle, Sophia Sewell, Jackson Hunter and Harrison Hunter; and seven great grandchildren

Mary loved sewing, traveling and spending numerous hours fishing Lake Conway. She was creative, determined and able to accomplish anything. Her legacy of faith and love will carry on.

Rosary will be 12:00 pm Saturday, June 15, 2024 at St. Joseph Catholic Church, 1115 College Ave, Conway, Arkansas, with Mass of Christian Burial beginning at 1:00 pm with Father John Connell officiating. Burial will follow at St. Joseph Cemetery being carried by those who she carried in life, her five daughters.
