Louise was born on February 4, 1922 in Centerview, MO to Louis and Goldie (Smith) Griffey. On December 31, 1947, she married Lester E. “Jack†Ehlert, in July of 1987 he preceded her in death. On June 10, 1995 she married Glenn E. Dennis who survives of the home. Louise spent the early part of her life as a farmer’s wife and a stay at home mom raising her four children. She had quite a green thumb and enjoyed vegetable and flower gardening. In the mid 1960’s the family moved from the farm east of Mt. Tabor Church into Odessa. She began working away from home, first at Odessa R-7 High School Cafeteria and then Action Products and finally for New Haven Nursing Home. In 1987 she became a Certified Medication Aide and after retirement she continued volunteering for the Odessa Senior Center. Louise and Glenn loved to dance, especially waltzes.
