So dying at church on Jesus’s birthday was almost God orchestrated. We wish to thank the parishioners at St. Louis King of France Church, who were present at the 10:30 a.m. Christmas mass. They were so lovely in rendering aid to try to revive her, whether it was calling 911, doing CPR, checking her pulse, holding her head, or flagging down the ambulance.

She was affectionately called “Prec” (short for “precious”). She was a sweet, kind woman who truly loved all people, and would constantly help others.

Her husband Russell , Loyola’s long-time photographer, predeceased her, as well as two children , Russell G. Cresson, Jr. and Dr. Gregory John Cresson. She is survived by her 7 other children: Kathleen Cresson, Guy Cresson (Pam); Diane Schwing (Adrian); Mary Kay Enger , (Dan); Jeanne Ineich (Joe); John Cresson (Cathe), and Russell Jeffery Cresson (Denean) .
