Pike, Maurine M. (nee Mense ), departed peacefully Saturday, May 2nd, 2020, at the age of 89 surrounded by her 9 children. Born Dec. 29, 1929 in Moscow Mills Mo. to the late Clem F Mense and Laura L Mense (née Smith). Beloved wife of the late Victor E. Pike, cherished mother of Jeff (Agnes) Pike, Greg (Janice) Pike, Dave (Donna) Pike, Pam (Ted) Kissel, Paula (Jim) Doll, Jerry (Marcia) Pike, Miriam (Rick) Back, Laura Pike and Thomas Pike.

She was preceded in death by her siblings Norma, Irv, and Alice and is survived by her brother Bob (Kay) Mense, of Atlanta, Mo. and numerous nieces and nephews who affectionately called her "Auntie Babe". Maurine always identified with her roots as a small town farm girl from Old Monroe, Mo. Her fondness of her parents' farm and the wonderful memories that were created there by her nine children and their cousins will always be held close in our hearts. A Mass of Christian Burial will be held privately for the immediate family. Internment will be in Gate of Heaven Cemetery, Cincinnati, OH.
