I worked under Louise, warden of our precinct in Oak Square, for the past many elections. It was always wonderful to renew our relationship at 6AM on election day at the Oak Square Y. What a lovely, caring and competent person. And she knew almost everyone in the precinct by name! What a loss to our community. I wish strength to her loving family and friends during this difficult time. I am sad I will not be able to attend the service in memory of her as I will be away.

Lulu Belle was the Best, a mother figure and dear friend to everyone she touched and came across. Funny and good to go with playing pranks on. Her laughter and humor was infinite. However, watch out when she did scold you. LOL :) . That was funny too. Lulu Belle, you are already missed and will be missed and thought of for endless time. We love you. We know you are with Kevin in heaven, the love of your life. Say hello from all of us and we'll see you in heaven.
