Louise was a vital member of the Gonzalez United Methodist congregation in Cantonment, FL. Her presence will be sorely missed. Her kind heart and fervent spirit touched us all. Our hearts were truly broken when we received the news regarding her passing. Her mighty faith has taken her to a new home. She may be gone from this Earth but never forgotten. Her sacrificial nature set the example and even raised the bar for those who knew her. Louise was truly a difference maker. She lived what she believed and manifested God's amazing grace daily in our midst. Our heart felt condolences go out to the family and many friends of Louise Sine.

I was heartbroken to hear that Louise passed recently. But I am saddened even more that I missed the opportunity to pay my respects to her and to her family. Louise was such a wonderful person to me in my early years. She always was so friendly and had an unmistakable laugh. Tammy, Gay, Duane and Keith were great to grow up with and I’m happy we are still friends today. My heart and prayers goes out to each of you in your loss. Robin and I will be making a contribution in Louise’s namesake.God Bless you all Brian Dick

To Gay, Tammy, Keith, and Dwayne, I am so sorry for your loss. I loved your Mom as a friend and mentor. She was a terrific role model as Mother and Grandmother among many other roles. She became an official member of the unofficial "Sewciety Sisters" when she began working at So Fro Fabrics with me as I managed the fabric dept and she the sewing machine dept. Always, happy and positive and always willing to pick up slack when short of helpers. She was the best at giving encouragement with a gentle pat or a warm heartfelt hug. I have SO many wonderful memories of Louise! She was bridesmaid in my wedding, shoulder to cry on, sewing adviser, pattern maker Halloween costume maker, woman of faith and constant friend. I will always smile when I think of her. I have been praying for her and missing her since our last visit in Winchester. God bless you all -her loves and her legacy.

Keith, Gay, Dwayne and Tammy - I'm very sorry for your loss. Aunt Louise was such a good person and so strong in her faith. I thought a lot of Aunt Louise and enjoyed talking with her when she'd visit in the summer. She'll be deeply missed.

Thinking of you and your family! May your hearts feel the the nearness of God through the caring love of friends and through the many memories of love, laughter and family time.

Peace of mind is a call away. We're here when you need us most.

A Better Lady has not Ever walked this Earth. Her life and light are inspirations to us All. This world will surely miss Aunt Louise.My deepest condolences to her family, Heather (Gano) Duncan
