We only had the honor of knowing Ouane for about 8 yrs, but in that time
we saw what a lovely & caring person she was, always a smile on her
face, always wanting to do for other people. What a beautiful service
we attended today for her, it was an honor to know you, God Bless You.
Love You,
Lee & Wanda sellmeyer

I can't express in words the amount respect I have for my sister Baouane. She never once complained about all the health problems she had to face, yet still had a great sense of humor and smile.
After she passed away I have come to appreciate how she lived even more. She was beautiful inside and out as a young woman, then she had to fight all of the rest of her life to stay healthy and keep going. She was always very kind and caring toward me an and all the children in the family. I will always miss my older sister whose feisty will and fire was a joy to be around.
