Louise was a devout member of St. Bridget Catholic Church in Pleasant Hill and was very active in the Altar and Rosary Society. She truly was a woman with many passions and a selfless spirit. As a member of the local quilting guild and a lover of crochet, she spent much of her time crafting thoughtful gifts for friends and family. She played in a local bowling league, and was always proud and eager to share her achievements as a bowler at 88. In addition, she was a seasoned gardener with a love for traveling. She was a lifelong fan of the Kansas City Royals and Chiefs, rarely missing a game. More than anything, she enjoyed spending time with her family.
