Louise worked at Westclox for several years and then she was a homemaker. She cherished her family, enjoyed puzzles, and taught everyone to play cards, especially rummy. She was the best baker, chef, playmate, and babysitter (everyone wanted a sick day on her couch). Louise took pride in attending sporting events for her grandchildren and great-grandchildren, and often practiced with them in the yard. 

 
 

She was a member of St. Valentine Church. 

 
 

Survivors include one daughter, Lynn Schrader of Peru; one son, Edward Sigmund Jr., of Peru; four grandchildren, Collette Klein of Peru, Heather (Doug) Knoblauch of Oglesby, Jeff (Jamie) Strauch of LaSalle, and Ashley (Andrew) Wright of Bloomington; eleven great-grandchildren; and one great-great granddaughter. 

 
 

She was preceded in death by her husband of 55 years on April 2, 2003, daughter Sheila Klein Hedgepeth 2012, two sons-in-law Charles Willoughby Sr. 1998 and James Schrader 2013, four sisters and four brothers.
