August 24, 2021
Louise Woods Jernigan, 89, received her heavenly crown on August 23, 2021. Louise was born on January 13, 1932 to George and Ollie Mae (Payne) Woods in Atmore, Alabama and was one of 12 siblings.
Louise married Glen Jernigan, her husband of 65 years on January 10, 1948. Together they built a successful business in the retail gasoline industry operating dozens of locations in Northwest Florida and Southern Alabama. In addition to being a caregiver and business partner to Glen, Louise found her greatest joy being a mother to her two daughters and then a proud and loving Nanny to her grandchildren and great-grandchildren. She loved spending time with her family, cooking and serving delicious meals. Louise loved the Lord and served Him faithfully both in her church and in the community.
Louise was preceded in death by her husband Glen, her parents, and her siblings: William Alfred Woods, Otis Woods, Ruby Lee Lambert, Estelle Parker, Edward Woods, Anne Dunne, Mary Willis, Gladys Petrantis, Thelma Sierra, and Hazel Mason.
Louise is survived by her daughters Cindy (Dirk) Lundquist and Cathy (Bobby) Payne; grandchildren Layla (Wes) Lundquist- Smith, Brandon (Crystal) Payne, Megan (Drew) Ard; great grandchildren Atakelt and Evangeline Smith, Savannah Payne, and Christian, Riley Ann and Greyson Ard; one sister, Freddie (Gaines) Pezent as well as numerous nieces and nephews.
The family would like to express their sincere appreciation to Charline Wetzel, the Memory Care staff of The Blake of Pensacola, Adam and Mandy at Emerald Coast Hospice, and Deneen Rowan.
The family will greet friends at Faith Chapel North from 1pm to 2pm on Sunday, August 29, 2021 with a service to begin at 2pm. Pastor Jeff McKee of Victory Assembly of God will be officiating. Burial will follow at Bayview Cemetery.
