Also left to cherish her memory are her great- and great-great-grandchildren, as well as other extended family members.
Lou was met in heaven by her parents; her son, Randy Wallerich; a great-grandson, Jason Lafler; and her grandson, Joshua Wallerich.
Graveside services will be held at 11 a.m. Saturday, Oct. 30, at Cedar Memorial Park Cemetery, 4200 First Ave. NE, in the Garden of Reflection.
