My deepest sympathy to the family. Mrs Lou is a beautiful memory in my life. I so cherished her smile and laugh. She loved her family and circle of friends. Always brought love and kindness to those she met. She was so loving to my daughter Hillarie. Know my prayers and thoughts are with her family
