During the time of working, raising a family, caring for her parents, and helping with grandchildren, she attended Mississippi University for Women on nights and weekends. She earned a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration in 1985. She became a huge advocate of education for her family.

Louise loved to travel as long as it wasn't by boat or plane. She loved to spend time with her family, and her great grandchildren became the apple of her eye. She was a long-time member of the Hatley Primitive Baptist Church and would always turn to God's word for her source of strength and encouragement. Her hobbies included genealogy and flower gardening.
