Diane Gunnin wrote a sympathy message

“I met Mrs Louise in April 2010 and we instantly became friends. I would call her frequently and before we hung up, she would always say “ I love you and thanks for calling.” The last time I talked to her in 2019 she told me she had been sick and still wasn’t feeling well. I told her I was so sorry. I wanted to go see her and she told me if I wanted a copy of her latest book to send $30 and she would autograph it for me. It never happened I’m sorry to say. I loved her so much. .”
