So sorry that you are passing through this rough period in your life. I remember LouAnn as "one of those cute little Osborn girls". Her mother, me and my sister grew up together in Chanute. I watched LouAnn grow into a happy, mature young woman and she was my daughter-inlaw's, Elisa, best friend. You know the two of them are having a good time right about now. Although these days are hard, you all have wonderful memories of LouAnn and she will forever be with you. When you catch a fleeting glance or hear a voice that makes you turn and look, she is with you, when you hear a word whispered in your ear, that's her, when you lie down at night, she will help you get peaceful rest. Because family, you cared for her so well. Sheaalways knew she was loved in every gesture you made. As King David wrote in the twenty-third numbers of Psalm's, The Lord is 'your' shepherd, you shall not. This too shall pass. Prayers with all you, may The Lord God Almighty bless you every day. May He cause rest and peace upon your souls. Love all of you.
My mom was the best mom out there. She was there when I needed her ANYTIME I needed her all through her battle. She still gave through sickness, even when there wasn't much to give and always kept me out of trouble. My mom was the most loving woman I've ever met. She always let people in and tried to see the best in people. She never turned any of my friends away if they needed help. She was a mother figure to each of them. As much love as she had, she was just as stubborn (a trait that I am happy to claim) that is what kept her with us for so long. She refused to lay down and give up she fought through a battle that I would have surrendered to far in the beginning. She was a survivor.
As heartbroken as I maybe, she is in a much better place with my grandfather and others. Probably, already causing mischief (also another trait I am proud to claim) :) and spreading her love and lighting heaven with her smile.
I met LouAnn & Ed for the first time four months ago when I was invited into their home for the weekend with Sharie.. It was one of the best weekends of my life.. 2 of the nicest people I've met in a long time.. Ed, Sharie, Kayla, and Cheyanne, you are all in my prayers and I'm sending hugs to you all..

Eddie,
It has been years since I've seen you or LouAnn. I was so sorry to hear of her passing. I totally agree with what LaDonna Watts said. I remember that LouAnn was always nice to me. She always had a big smile. I'm so glad she found a loving man like yourself, Ed; and that she had kids and grandkids to fill her life up with. Its hard to think about her not being around. However, with that being said, I believe she is in a better place now. Young and vibrant, and free from disease and pain. Just know, Ed, you have many friends who care about you. Reach out to us.

Ed and family, It has been years since I have seen either of you, never got to meet your beautiful family, but have so many wonderful memories from years past of LouAnn, She was a beautiful soul, a beautiful woman, so I know she was a wonderful wife, mother and grandmother. I am so sorry for your loss, and I pray that God will fill you and your families hearts with peace and comfort during this time of mourning. I hope you find peace in knowing that she is now resting in the arms of our Lord, and she knows no more pain or suffering, and I pray that God will shower her in His wonderful Mercy and Grace. She will always be with you in Spirit as Christ is always with us in Spirit. My love, thoughts and prayers are with you all.
Love always for wonderful friends,
LaDonna Shields Watts
