Louise was very dear to our family. Jeannetta is her grandaughter and shared a very special relationship with her. I used to affectionately call her "Old Woman" and she would call me a whippersnapper. She is with us always, and we will all miss her very much. Kerry and Jeannetta, Kaitlynn and Mitchell.

We were very sorry to hear of Grannie's death. I had just talked to her not long ago, she said she had just got out of the hospital. Please let us know when you will have services for her in Iowa. I will let the kids know. Sincerely
