Louise was born in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, on October 10, 1926, and lived in Oklahoma City all of her life until moving to Atchison, Kansas in 2007.

Louise had a lifelong love of music, which began with piano lessons at age six. She won a music scholarship at age 16 for her performance of "Clair de Lune" on the piano. She attended Oklahoma City University at that young age as a music major and received a BFA in music. She was in the choral group that sang the song "Oklahoma" for the governor when it was chosen as the state song. Throughout her life she taught piano lessons and played the organ for church services, weddings and funerals.

Louise married the love of her life, Leo John Feuerborn, on July 26, 1947, at Corpus Christi Catholic Church in Oklahoma City. They had four children and welcomed one nephew into the family as well. Family vacations were always a priority for them, with much careful planning involved in each one. Louise and Leo also loved making a beautiful home and entertaining their many friends. They were happily married for 62 years until Leo's death in 2010.

Louise was an active member of Alpha Omega Sorority since her college days. She made many good friends through church choirs, participated in many other volunteer and social organizations, and enjoyed volunteering for the Atchison Hospital Auxiliary.

She is survived by her four children; Randy (Tara) Feuerborn of Oklahoma City, OK; Donna (Mike) McCloskey of Atchison, KS; Leslie Feuerborn of Albuquerque, NM; and Mark (Julie) Feuerborn of Portland, OR; seven grandchildren; three step-grandchildren; one great-grandchild; two step-great-grandchildren and her brother Donald Trice.

Louise was preceded in death by her parents, her beloved Aunt Mary, her husband Leo, her nephew Buck Trice, and twin infant grandsons.
