While talking about what was LouAnn like, Penny says, "She was a very talented woman and enjoyed performing for others. She could play the guitar, she sang, she played the organ and the piano and was even a ventriloquist. LouAnn would go around to different churches and bring her puppets with her... She even wrote a children's book and had it published."

Penny says, her sister would want others to understand that coronavirus is real and everyone should heed to the warnings. "They need to listen to the news media about how infectious the virus is, and it is very painful. At least it was for my sister; she was in such agony," she said.
