Isla Lou (Lovelady) Wallace

ISLA LOU (LOVELADY) WALLACE, age 88 of Maplesville, passed away to her Heavenly home on April 1, 2024 after a peaceful Easter Sunday surrounded by lots of loved ones. She was born in Dallas County on June 24, 1935; the daughter of the late Marshall Calvin Lovelady and the late Pauline Elizabeth King Lovelady.

She was a devoted wife and a dedicated mother, grandmother, great grandmother, and a friend to all who knew her. Lou was so proud of her family and took every chance she could to tell others about her loved ones. She had a devout faith, a kind spirit, and had endured so much in her lifetime with both grace and patience. She truly was one of a kind, and the world was a better place because Lou was a part of it. Although we will miss her here, we find hope that we will all get to see her again one day.

She is survived by: Daughter, Charlotte Wallace DeLoach of Clanton; Daughter, Sherry McGee (Randall) Taylor of Maplesville; Daughter, Janice Wallace (Jerry) Doucet of Verbena; 6 Grandchildren; and 7 Great Grandchildren.

She is preceded in death by: Husband, John C. “Jack” Wallace.
