Louise attended Georgia College and State University (formerly Georgia College for Women), where she received a Bachelor's Degree in Home Economics. She retired from teaching after 31 years, 27 of which were in Rockdale County where she lived for 54 years. Louise participated in Pilot Club, 2 Bunco groups, Gadabouts, Rockdale Retired Teachers, Happy Hearts, Pathfinders Sunday School, and was an active member of Crossroads United Methodist Church. She loved teaching, sewing, cooking, and serving others. Even though she only had two grandsons, she was Nannie to many.
