Her siblings were Thelma (Gordan) Smith, Lewis Krom, Trisha (Russell) Herron, all deceased. She grew up in the South Whitley- Columbia City areas and graduated from Columbia City High School in 1942.

Louise married Harold M. Jacoby on August 18, 1947. They raised four children in Fort Wayne: Kathryn, Carolyn, Nafisa (Sheryl) and Michael. Harold died suddenly on December 7, 1974. As a full time homemaker, she then found employment at the Fort Wayne Development Center until retirement.

In 1989, she married Everett W. Shull and shared life with him until he passed on in 2000.
