Louise moved to Bonham from Goldsboro, NC in 2009 after the death of her husband Louis to be close to her son David. A career social worker for government agencies she assisted those in need get available services. For 40 years she was a member of St. Luke's United Methodist Church in Goldsboro. A life long piano player, it gave her great delight in being able to donate the grand piano that is still used in weekly services at St. Luke's. Additionally, she and her husband designed and built the memorial garden with its ornamental arch and iron works between the sanctuary and the fellowship hall. She transferred her membership from St. Luke's United Methodist Church to First United Methodist Church of Bonham upon moving here.

Louise was an excellent seamstress who delighted in making clothing, costumes and smocking for her grandchildren.

Upon relocation to Bonham, she promptly joined the "Pink Ladies" at the Bonham hospital and took pride in the service she provided and the friends that were developed. Louise continued attending meetings even after she was no longer physically able to work. Her co-worker and friend Wileen from the hospital gift shop visited her every Friday and kept her up to date on all the "fun news".

In lieu of flowers, contributions may be made in her memory to the TMC Bonham Hospital Auxiliary, 504 Lipscomb Blvd., Bonham, TX 75418.
