  5. Louise was a wonderful sister. We talked to each other by telephone once or twice almost everyday. We often talked about family members that have been gone for years that I never met. Her mind was like a library. She could tell me so much about them as well as how much kin we were to each other. She came up in hard times and would tell me about her and my sisters taking the family clothes to the spring and creek on the wagon pulled by dad’s horse to wash and hang them out to dry. She never stopped working hard even up to the day God called her home.If something needed doing around her house, she made sure it got done. She loved her boy’s WK and Jerry to pieces as well as her granddaughter and great grandkids. Truth is she loved everybody. I already miss her and know her family does as well. My sister Evelyn in Georgia is taking her passing hard as well. I love you Louise and Virginia does as well. She is gonna miss those delicious chocolate pies you made and brought over here. Rest in peace my dear sister. Enjoy our family in Heaven and we’ll see you as well one day. Again I love you. Your brother..::::::: Jim

  6. Jerry, WK and family,
    Please know you are in our thoughts and prayers as you celebrate the life of your mother, and the wonderful memories she left with each of you.

  7. Our sympathy to WK, Jerry and all the family. Mrs. Oldham always had a sweet smile and kind words for all she met. May God bless you all with His peace, comfort and strength. JoAnn & Dell
