I'm so very sorry for the Willis Family's loss of Louise. She was a sweet and funny lady. I used to babysit her & Maurice's 4kiddos. Her family went to the Conroe Church Of The Nazarene on Silverdale Drive where our family went also. So many fun memories from that time long ago now. God Bless You All during your time of loss. Love & Prayers to the Willis Children, Grandkids & Family, Carole Cloud Jensen
