Sweet Sweet Miss Lou that she was!!! I can remember when I live back in Garden City going to her tanning bed just enjoying being with her she was always so sweet and always had such kind words. I just loved her. And I was so honored at Christmas time to see her at Ruth Chris with her beautiful daughters and granddaughter I was so excited to see them and I feel so blessed . When we saw her eating in December she had that big smile on her face then too. . Terry Connie and the family I am so sorry for ya’ll loss she was a fabulous lady and I was so glad she was my friend.

"Little" Louise, as I knew her, was my sister. She was married to my brother Joe and even though their marriage didn't last the test of time she was still my sister to this day. When I was younger I spent so much time at their house I guess Lou-Lou felt like she raised me along with Teri & Coni. She kept us giggling and she saw to it that we had good times. Those memories are very dear to my heart and will never be forgotten. Rest well, my sweet Lou-Lou, I love you and you will be sorely missed! Teri and Coni, I love y'all, too, God bless and keep you both.
