To the family of Aunt Louise Stewart Roberts: we offer our condolences. May the God of all comfort comfort your hearts as you go through your time of mourning. Aunt Louise was a special lady in our lives. My wife, Louise was named after her. When we were married, Aunt Louise baked our wedding cake. As we drew closer, her nieces, Brinderlyn, Gennie, and Louise would call her, and she would be so happy that they would call her. I Later started talking with her and we would have great converssations about the Lord and her love for Him and her praise for the life He had given her, and for the salvation He had given her through her Lord Jesus Christ. She had a compelling testimony showing her love and praise for God and for what He meant to her and her life. On many occasions, we would just have a great time talking about the Lord. We never tired of hearing her giving glory to God for His Goodness! She made it so interesting and so real. After we finished talking, I would lead us in prayer and Aunt Louise would listen very intently agreeing with the prayer. When I finished, she never failed to encourage me, and she never failed to encourage her nieces, telling them how much she appreciated their call, and how much she loved all of us! Her great great niece, Angelica recorded a video of Aunt Louise's testimony, which demonstrated how a God-fearing life is altered and affected when Jesus is in the center of the thoughts and being of a committed Christian!!! Angelical'a recording of Aunt Louise's testimony reminded me of the conversations and the prayer times we used to share with Aunt Louise. She always expressed a word of appreciation and encouragement after each time we would come together in prayer over our cellphones. To her family, you were so blessed to have the influence of such a praying and God-fearing matriarch as mother Louise Roberts. To God be the glory for allowing us to experience the beautiful Christian life we saw in her. To God be the glory for allowing us to experience the beautiful Christian life we saw in Aunt Louise. From her labor to reward, it was not in vain because it was in the Lord! From the fellowship of Christ's sufferings to the unspeakable joy of His kingdom, the Father says: "Well done thou good and faithful servant, you have been faithful over a few things. Enter thou into the joy of thy Lord." So, let us weep with those who weep, and rejoice with those who rejoice." It is in her passing that we realize that our loss is heaven's gain. So, we are reminded of the promise from God's Holy Word: "Though absent from her body, she is present with the Lord." So, today, Aunt Louise is more alive now, than she has ever been before! Hallelujah!!! She will be sorely missed by all of us! We love you all in Jesus! Willie and Louise Martin: nephew and niece. In times like this: May God's Peace be multiplied! Amen.
My family and I can't express the sorrow we feel in our hearts at the loss of Mrs. Louise. She was a long time carrying and loving friend of our family. Heaven has received a true Angel.
Many Blessings and love to the family during your time of brevement.
