Lou Ann was born to Evelyn and Joe Wilcox in Hamilton, Texas on February 4, 1939. She married the love of her life, Harmon Hatley Brumble, on May 8, 1956. They spent 55 years fishing, hunting, and doing whatever they could do together. Lou Ann was a caregiver for her family, friends, and others in need for many years. She was currently a resident at Arabella Independent Senior Living in Longview. During her time there, she enjoyed making many new friends who became like family to her. There were many things she enjoyed there, but more than anything else, she enjoyed playing 42 with her special "42 Friends" and she especially liked to win!
Lou Ann was preceded in death by her husband of 55 years, Hatley Brumble; her grandson, Joe Daniel Brumble; parents, Evelyn and Joe Wilcox; and two sisters, Peggy Davidson and Wanda Jones.
