Louise A Chestnut
November 8, 1928 - September 13, 2020
The Chestnut family sadly announces the peaceful passing of our mother, Louise Allen Chestnut, of Murrells Inlet, SC on Sunday, September 13, 2020. She was 91 years old. Louise is the 10th child and youngest daughter born to Isaiah and Minnie Moore Allen, of Conway, SC. Louise is preceded in death by her husband of 72 years, Bruce Chestnut, as well as three sisters and seven brothers. She is survived by a devoted younger brother, Ray Allen (Faith), of Myrtle Beach, SC.; by four children Judie Edwards (Lee); Cookie Millwood (Danny); Buddy Chestnut; Sonny Chestnut (Janice); and four grandchildren: Craig Chestnut (Ashley)(Morgan and Courtney Willis); Leigh Millwood; Matthew Millwood (Kirby); Lewis Chestnut; and one great-grandson, Gavin Chestnut. Louise was a beautiful woman inside and out whose smile and positive attitude reflected a deep and abiding love of God. Her “light” shown bright right up until the end of her life when she was forced to slow down. Even then, her biggest concern and worry was not for herself, but for those who would remain behind without her – those who would miss her bright shining face. We thank God for the gift of Louise Chestnut. We know his first words to her were: Welcome, my good and faithful servant. Memorials can be made to Garden City Baptist Church, Music Fund, Garden City Baptist Church, 501 Pine Avenue, Murrells Inlet, SC 29576.
