to family of Louise Christensen, You have my condolences as you mourn the death of your beloved matriarch. She lived at 3920 40th and we live 4 houses south at 2902 40. Ours is the place with big red wheelchair ramp out front. ( I had stroke in 2013 so I use it sometimes. My husband and I enjoyed waving at Louise and stopping to visit at her driveway. 90 years is a good long life but it is never long enough when the one is so fear. May God comfort you with happy memories . You will forever hold Louise in your hearts. We will always remember our sweet neighbor and her cheerful greetings. Gods peace, LaVonne & Gary
