Jim and family,
So sorry to hear of your loss. I didn't know Louise personally, having only met her once at the 50th class reunion last year in Biwabik but, I know how hard it is to lose someone you dearly love. My sympathies and prayers for God to give you strength and comfort in the months ahead.

Dear Jim and family,
Louise was such a loving and kind person which will live on in the lives of her husband, son and daughter-in-law, and grandchildren. We are all better for having known her and being recipients of her caring. I am so grateful we were able to spend a few hours with all of you on Sunday during her "bucket list" trip to Chicago.
May you be comforted by the love and prayers of family and friends as you mourn her death and be filled with the peace that truly surpasses all understanding. She is with all of those she loved who preceded her in death and is now truly in God's loving arms.
