Louise Evans Hall, age 94, loving mother, grandmother and sister, went home to be with the Lord on Sunday, July 16, 2017 while at the Marjorie McCune Memorial Center in Black Mountain.  A native and lifelong resident of McDowell County, North Carolina, born September 22, 1922, she was the daughter of the late Grady and Etta Evans. 

Miss Louise, who loved the outdoors, gardening, flowers and people, had worked at Etta Packaging and later began working at Baxter Healthcare where she ultimately retired.  Following retirement, she worked at Autumn Care of Marion and the Old Fort Senior Center.  Always active in church, Louise was a lifelong member of Providence United Methodist Church and most recently had been attending Pleasant Hill United Methodist Church.
