Louise Willman Rapp

Louise Willman Rapp, 84, appearing to be in vibrant health, was taken suddenly on August 25th of an apparent aneurysm. She was born in Seaton, Illinois in 1920, and was the last survivor of four children born to Martin and Maude Willman. Louise was married to her husband, Herbert C. Rapp, for 53 years before he passed away in 1993. She is survived by her three children, Herb Rapp, daughter Susie Morris and husband Chris, and daughter Janice VanCronkhite and husband David. Louise was also blessed with four grandchildren, Annie and Tim Rapp, DJ VanCronkhite, and Nicki Morris as well as two great grand children, Taylor and Ashley Cheek. Louise was a commercial artist and fine arts painter who began painting masterfully at the age of eleven the same time she received Jesus as her Lord and Savior. She and her husband, Herb, owned several Rapp''s Racquet Shoppes in Fla. and Nevada and she later became a Nikken Wellness Consultant due to miraculous results for her arthritis after use of the products. Her daughter, Janice, and son in law, David, have a church based ministry for the poor called Blood n Fire in downtown Atlanta.
