Louise Annette (Watson) Taylor, 79, passed away Friday, October 2, 2020, at John Knox Memory Care Facility in Lee’s Summit, Missouri.

Louise was born February 13, 1941 in Brewton, Alabama, the daughter of Fred and Alberta Watson.

In 1966, they moved to Kansas City, Missouri and later to Lone Jack, Missouri, where they raised their two children. After retirement, they moved to Warsaw, Missouri and lived at Truman Lake until she moved to John Knox Village Care Center.
