Louisa is survived by her husband Jim, her two loving children Marisa and Ricky, her father Richard Santoya, her sister Kathy (John) Hatcher, eight nieces and nephews and a large extended family including two godchildren.
She was preceded in death by her mother Sharon Chavez.
Louisa’s hobbies included crafting, reading and junk journaling, but her primary focus was spending time with and caring for her family.
Some of those who had the pleasure of knowing her have described her as being generous, welcoming, the most beautiful soul they have met, an angel on earth, every bit of light, love and support, having a beautiful smile, a big heart for all walks of life, and the best thing that ever happened to Jim.
Her quick wit, sense of humor and compassionate voice will be sorely missed.
In lieu of flowers, contributions can be made to Louisa’s favorite charity; Catholic Charities of Denver Adopt-a-Family.
