In 1953, at the Stambaugh Church (School), 22 years of age Louise gave her Life to the Lord and had been a member of Locust Grove Church for 72 years.

Louise was the thread and the heart that kept her family together. She was a devoted mother, grandmother, and friend. She will be remembered for her Determination and dedication to her family.

She was a former Grocery Store Owner and Housewife, where she took pride in her Gardening, Flowers, and Canning from her Garden. She enjoyed warmth of making a Quilt and the Comfort of Cooking a meal for her family or making her wonderful Homemade apples pies. She enjoyed sitting by the window, looking out and watching Gods Nature and the Birds.

Her life was not about Grand Gestures but love that built her family.

Though you may be Gone from our sight, you will always be with us in our hearts. God gave us to You, now we give you back to Him. Where you will rest with Him for eternity. We love you and will always miss you.
