She married the love of her life Stevens Ray Heard on October 29, 1984. They shared thirty-nine joyful years of marriage, countless memories, and floor parties. Louise was a lifelong Dallas Cowboys fan and never missed a game. She adored butterflies. She even collected porcelain butterflies she displayed in her home. Louise was an animal lover to say the least. Stevens and Louise owned and operated an exotic bird rescue for numerous years named Heard’s Birds. She was a devoted wife, mother, grandmother, sister, and friend to many. She will be greatly missed by all who had the pleasure of knowing her.
