Throughout her life, Louise found joy in the simple pleasures of painting, gardening, and tending to her yard blooming with colorful flowers. Her artistic talents extended beyond the canvas, as she spent many years honing her skills as a seamstress and as the owner of Dixie Cleaners. Louise loved to travel. She had a goal to visit all 48 continental states, however, there were three states she never saw: Washington, Oregon, and North Dakota. Her favorite pastime was fishing. Wherever she found water, Louise would cast a line. She spent many hours reeling in her catches.

She is survived by her loving children, Kitty (Dewayne) Witcher, Keith (Susan) Hill, Maelena (Louis) Phillips; Belinda Morris, and Patty (Jeffrey) Bozada; grandchildren, Jamie Hill, Ashley Friend, Earnie Hill, Richie Ermert, Brittany Killian, Jay Phillips, Mike Morris, and Valerie Simpson; sister, Kathryne Moore; eighteen great grandchildren; and two great-great grandchildren.

A deeply devoted member of West View Baptist Church, Louise's faith guided her throughout her life, bringing solace and strength in times of need.
