My deepest condolences to the family at this difficult time. I hope the words at Rev.21:4 bring you comfort. It says: "God will wipe out every tear from their eyes,and death will be no more,neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.†Please know you are in my thoughts and prayers.

Alan, LaKeeta & Family: I am so very sorry for your loss! Aunt Louise was so very special to us all! She loved us all, and we knew it. Now she is in heaven with her Mom & Dad, Uncle Ed, and her brothers and sisters. I can see her now at heavens gate, and with all of her dogs greeting her, "Momma's home!" Until I see you again, love always, Kimi

Alan and LaKeeta,
I'm so sorry to hear of Aunt Louise's passing. She was a wonderful lady. We all loved her so much. She was the Aunt that always gave us that extra something special. Whether it was candy or a couple dollars or even an ear to listen. When you guys moved to Arkansas I was very sad. I loved when you guys came back to Indiana for the summers. Aunt Louise and I would make pies and talk all day long. Those summers will always be in my heart. And you, Alan and LaKeeta are in my prayers.
Love you,
Cathy
