Family was most important to Louise. She devoted her life to her husband and children and later to her grandchildren. She loved to travel and enjoyed trips with family, close girlfriends and especially with her husband. The two spent their retirement years

visiting their children and traveling the world. Jim and Louise loved to entertain friends and family at their house on Center Hill Lake. Louise was known for her pancake breakfasts and picnic sandwiches with homemade mayonnaise. She could be found happily cruising at the helm of their pontoon boat. She also spent many summers at Bonnie Cottage in the Monteagle Assembly with generations of friends and family. The grandchildren loved spending time with their “Lulu”. Louise was very close with her sister Anna Mary with whom she shared a great resemblance. They were often seen about town together, and some even referred to the duo as “the bookends!” Louise loved to cook and try new cuisine. She and Jim loved cooking together and trying new cuisines and restaurants in their travels. She was a lifetime learner and was especially fascinated by new technology.

As a mother, she made sure her children knew they were special each in their own ways. It was her superpower. She was generous of spirit. She always made time for the people she loved.
