Her smile could light up every room. She loved and was loved; her family was everything to her. Sis, you are missed even today...!

Louise was more than an aunt and godmother to me - she became my "mom", too, when my mother - her sister and best pal - Dorothy, passed away many years ago. I am grateful to her, I miss her - and will remember her warmth, heart, sense of humor and selfless way of giving, always, with much love.

Louise made me feel so welcomed into the family. When you were with her you couldn't help but be happy as she had such a sparkling smile and sunny disposition. Her love of her family was so obvious and the most important thing in her life. She will be sadly missed by all.
