Our sympathy on the loss of your mother/grandmother/great grandmother. I have fond memories of Aunt Louise. It's been many years since I've seen her, but I enjoyed corresponding with her while she was in the nursing home in St. Charles.

She was blessed with a long life and loving family. May the memories of her time with you bring you comfort.

God bless,
Kathy & Russ Kamradt

What a delightful woman she was. She will definitely be missed. I am grateful she's left us the Lusso German potato salad receipe and a lot of fond memories. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you.

Louise was one of my favorite shut-ins to visit. We sang hyms, laughed, prayed and communed together while she was in St. Charles. She lifted my spirits as much, if not more, than I did hers as the parish nurse at Rejoice Church.
