Louise was a unique individual. I was her neighbor at the apartments. I used to visit with her and Elmer on occasion. The sentiments and stories as told by family at the funeral were things I remember also. I always agreed with her when Elmer did something she didn't like. She was her own woman. I will miss her. My sympathy to her family for the loss of this good woman.

Mom I am going to miss you. I loved you very much. I know we always didn't see eye to eye. But you were always there for me. When ever I was going through tough times I could call you and you were there to listen. Goodbye Mom
Love you
