Love will keep us alive.

Louise was a talented seamstress and used her gift and love of sewing to spread warmth and comfort to those in need.

Her meticulous work also shone through in the intricate Christmas dresses, bridesmaid dresses, pajamas, doll clothes and masks given away during the pandemic, all created with love and care.

After Loren and Louise moved back to Appleton in 1972, they joined Mount Olive Lutheran Church, where she proudly served as a longtime Ladies Aide, Altar Guild member and in other volunteer opportunities with the church and school.
