Jenneane Lafay Louviere

Jenneane Louviere, 81, passed away after a sudden illness on Thursday, November 5, 2015. Born in Boise, Idaho to parents Hazel Ross (née Fitzgerald) and Clarence Ross, she was the eldest of seven children. She followed her family to Henderson, Nevada where she met her one true love, Joseph Louviere.

Jenneane and Joseph were married for 28 years (June 1955 – May 1983), and those cherished memories of their time together brought her joy and laughter. She graduated high school in 1953, her first job was at Western Union and she later thrived as a homemaker and Certified Nurses Aide where she touched many lives. She loved hummingbirds, and enjoyed time spent in the garden and the kitchen. Pies and politics were her specialties; she perfected pumpkin pie and was passionate about Bill O’Reilly.

Jenneane’s source of strength beyond the love of her children and grandchildren was her Christian faith.

She is survived by her son Michael Louviere; Daughter Cynthia Louviere; Siblings Barbara Conway, Virginia Hebard; Grandchildren Jaclyn Zatta, Michelle Louviere, Christina Palmer; 6 great grandchildren, and many nieces and nephews.

She was preceded in death by her siblings, Duane Ross, Joann Ross, William Ross, and Mary Spaur; her parents Hazel and Clarence Ross; and her former husband Joseph Louviere.

A memorial service will be held at 11:00am on Tuesday, November 10, 2015 at Gateway Little Chapel of the Chimes, 1515 NE 106th Avenue, Portland, OR 97220.

All are welcome to join family for a time of fellowship and refreshments following the memorial service at 4309 NE 127th Avenue, Vancouver, WA 98682.
