Mrs. Mersiovsky was born December 11, 1932 in Walburg, Texas to Alvin Arldt and Frieda Hanusch Arldt. She attended parochial school at Zion Lutheran Church in Walburg and was raised on a cotton farm. Her classmates teased her that she would marry Victor Martin Mersiovsky and, in 1955, they were married at Zion Lutheran Church. They had two children and Mamie was so proud that her daughter shared her papa's birthday. Mamie enjoyed gardening and planting oak trees and made the best coconut pie. She was active in the Immanuel Lutheran Church and served as president of the Lutheran Women's Missionary League for one year. She was a Sales Associate at Beall's Department Store for 34 years.
