Aunt Louise was a beautiful person, in every way. She had a real gift of always making you feel that she was so happy to see you. She was so warm and loving! Thinking of her makes my heart feel “glad.” You all have my deepest sympathy as I know you will dearly miss her. However, we all know that we will see her sweet smile again. I am sure there is a joyful heavenly reunion, and celebration going on. God Bless!
