After high school she attended Latrobe Hospital School of Nursing, and graduated at the age of 21. She had a long and dedicated nursing career. Louise and her husband moved to Swartz Creek, Michigan in 1969, where they raised their two children. She belonged to Latrobe Hospital Nursing Alumni Association, Church choirs, the Sweet Adeline's, and the Dutch Club. She was a very loving and caring person with a good sense of humor. She enjoyed playing piano, singing, attending musicals, and entertaining at dinner parties. After 40 years of nursing, the last 33 of which were in the operating room, she retired in 1992. Ten years ago she and her husband moved from Michigan to Redding, California to be close to the grandchildren she cherished and loved.
