I have always cherished all of the ceramic pieces that she made for me and the fun jewelry. I kept all of them and passed them on to my children and now my grand children. I have many fond memories of driving with my grandma to pick up June and Paul for visits, passing field after field of beautiful sunflowers. To this day, whenever I see a field of those bright yellow flowers, I think of those visits.

Rest In Peace Aunt Lou

Dear Louise's family,
It has been our privilege and to our benefit to have known and loved Louise for these past years. We are so glad you shared her with us our lives are better because of it. We loved her! We'll miss her smile, her laugh, the long talks, her friendship to my Mom. She was always a joy to have around and a wonderful person we will miss her so much! Melinda Smallegan

So sorry for the loss of a wonderful friend. Since she moved in we were friends we went shopping and lunch all the time. On Sunday morning for way over a year while everyone else was in church we were having coffee and donuts. What fun times we had. Louise was funny had a sense of humor. I will miss our talks.
Rest in Peace my dear friend. Barbara Neisler
