Sorry to hear about your Louise. I enjoyed see her come to Stony Point Meth. Church back went she could attend. I'll always remember what a strong, & sweet person she was. I always told her when I got her age, I hoped I could get around as good as she did. My Thoughts & Prayers are with the family. I know she'll be missed.
