Louise graduated from Charles City High School, Charles City, IA, in 1944 where she played trombone in the band.

She married Woodrow Allen on March 7, 1953, and they were married for 52 years at the time of Woodrow's death in November 2005.

She loved spending time with family and friends and making homemade cards. She was a long-time Presbyterian and was active for several years with Girl Scout programs. She spent her life giving and helping others and will be missed by many.
