Louise (Buckholt) Lange, 89, of Austin, beloved wife, mother, grandmother and sister, was called home on November 24, 2019, surrounded by her four loving daughters. Louise was born to Frank and Julia (Frei) Buckholt on November 19, 1930 in Westphalia, Texas. She attended school in Westphalia and Lott. Louise married her soulmate, George Lange, on November 24, 1953, at the Church of the Visitation in Westphalia in a double ceremony with her twin sister Lucy and Eugene Halfmann. Her death coincided with what would have been her 66th wedding anniversary. They lived in San Angelo for three years, and then made their home in Austin. George preceded her in death on April 22, 2010. Louise had attended St. Louis Church since 1958 and had volunteered in both church and school activities. She had a special desire to help the needy and less fortunate. She was a devout Catholic and had a special devotion to the rosary which she prayed daily. Her last conversation with her daughters focused on the importance of continued prayer.
Louise is survived by her four daughters, Julia Adcock (Donnie) and Barbara Longmore of Cedar Park, and Jane Meyer (Marvin) and Donna Hoff (Tim) of Westphalia. She was the beloved grandmother of ten and great-grandmother of fourteen. She is also survived by Alois Buckholt (Lou), her twin sister Lucy Halfmann, and numerous nieces and nephews and friends. Her special bond with her beloved twin Lucy is beyond what words can describe.
She was preceded in death by her son-in-law, Jack Longmore II, niece, Connie Smiser, and her siblings Walter Buckholt, Odelia Frei, Flora Herzog, and Julianna Olbrich.
The family wishes to extend their deepest gratitude to Aline Zeringue, ACNS-BC and staff at ATX Primary Care and to Monica Alvarado, her caretaker, for their loving care and support.
