Louise was born on October 16, 1939 in Parks, Arkansas to J. Carroll and A. Marie Franklin.  Louise graduated from high School at the age of 16 and at 19 from Arkansas Tech University with a Bachelors of Science in Education. She taught school from 1959 to 1972, when she started running her husband’s optometry office. She retired in 1997, traveling abroad to work as a missionary for the International Mission Board for the Southern Baptist Church.  After returning to the States in 2004, she enjoyed retirement and her family.

She was devoted to her children and grandchildren and was so gentle.  You could not get a better mother and she so loved the Lord.
