Funeral services will be held at 10:30 AM Saturday, March 17, 2018, in Edgewood Hall of Striffler-Hamby, 4071 Macon Road Columbus, Georgia.

Mrs. Farrell was born October 28, 1927, in McMinnville, Tennessee, to the late Charles Augustus Gulick and Ethel Pearl Barnes Gulick. In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her husband, Vincent Jerome Farrell; a son, Craig X. Farrell; a grandson, Dustin “Dusty” Daniels Brown; three great-grandchildren, Richard Allen Farrell, John Michael Farrell, and Mary Ann Adams; and a brother, Henry Gulick.

Louise Farrell dedicated her life to helping those who were in need and never asked for anything in return. You would find her volunteering most of her time at the Medical Center Gift Shop, John B. Amos Cancer Center, Meals on Wheels, and Gallops Center. She loved quilting and crocheting and would put her gift to use by making booties, caps, and baby blankets for premature babies at the Medical Center, making comfort pillows and lap blankets for Columbus Hospice, and made bibs and lap blankets for various other local nursing homes. When Mrs. Farrell was not volunteering, she was very active and a long-time member of Edgewood Church of Christ and specifically active in Ladies’ Bible Class.

She is survived by three children: Sharon (Charlie) Adams, Charles (Shannon) Farrell, and Yvonne (Dennis) Brown, seven grandchildren, seventeen greatgrandchildren, and many, many friends and family who will miss her dearly.

Honorary Pall Bears will be Charles Farrell, Charles Farrell II, Dennis Brown, Charlie Adams, David Adams, Billy Adams, and Christopher Farrell.
