Louise loved the Lord and her family. She was always thinking of others and had a servant’s heart. Whenever there was a need or sickness in her community, she was always cooking a meal for them. She was especially famous for her fried pies, and her grandchildren thought MawMaw’s chocolate gravy was the best. She was a great cook and taught her girls and granddaughters how to cook, can, and crochet. If you came to visit, she always wanted you to take home something she had canned or a jar of jelly she had made. She loved puzzles, Wheel of Fortune, and listening to gospel radio stations.
Special thank you to Encompass Heath Rainbow City, especially Tammy Cox, Brandon Thrasher, and Drew Allen. She loved her doctors, Dr. Shawnta Anakwah, and Dr. Debora Reiliand.
In lieu of flowers, the family request donations be made to the Egypt Volunteer Fire Department.
