OSBORNE, Louetta Jane

The Daily Courier, Prescott, Arizona Thursday, March 15, 2012 Louetta Jane Osborne, 54, died in her beloved state of Arizona on March 8, 2012. A triple threat - dedicated equestrian, caring teacher and passionate outdoorswoman - she was always full of life and love. Born in Montevideo, Minn., on Dec. 10, 1957, she moved to Arizona to pursue her love of horses and the wonderment of the desert. A woman of strong conviction and sassy, no-nonsense demeanor, she had a smile that was simply contagious. Louetta leaves to cherish her memory her love and devoted partner, Wayne Allen, and his son, Justin; her brothers, Graham (Janice), Loren (Patty) and Colin (Johanna) Hendrickson; sisters Anite Conover (Lance) and Nikki Garrett; nephews Benjamin, Patrick and Corey Hendrickson, Jason Christenson and Brian Garrett; nieces Jennifer and Katie Hendrickson, and Jessica Brezinka and Amber Christenson; and daughters Rebecca and Patricia, and son Justin. Louetta was preceded in death by father Basil and mother Anne. A memorial service will be at 3 p.m. Sunday, March 18, 2012, at the Mayer Recreation Center in Mayer, Ariz. In lieu of flowers, the family suggests donations to the Lou Osborne Scholarship Fund at any Wells Fargo Bank. Information provided by survivors.
