Louise J. Pratt, 90, DeWitt, died Sunday morning, February 14, 2010, at Westwing Place, DeWitt.
Louise Jeanette Pratt was born October 8, 1919, in Bonaparte, Iowa, to William Vincent and Lucy Olena (Gillaspie) Huff. She married Robert Edgar Pratt, November 23, 1941.
Louise loved to draw, arrange flowers and bake beautiful birthday cakes for her grandchildren.

Louise was a devoted wife and mother and nothing gave her more pleasure than to be with her family and friends.
Surviving are a son, Jerald Pratt, Long Beach, California; a daughter, Roberta Barber, Lincoln, Nebraska; four grandchildren, Jon and Maria Pratt and Mike and Nate Barber; as well as five great-granddaughters.
She was preceded in death by her husband on December 12 of last year, her parents, three sisters, and five brothers.
