Louise died from natural causes on August 6, 2025, during Hospice Care in Traverse City, Michigan, where her daughter, Elaine, lives. Louise lived independently in her own home in Kernersville North Carolina until her 96th birthday in February.

Louise lived a long, happy and healthy life. She was born to Norwegian parents, Alma & Nils Aase, in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn.

During the Great Depression, when Louise was 4 and her brother, Rein 2, the family returned to Isdalstø, Norway. Her father, Nils, opened a bakery and Louise often helped her father deliver bread to their neighbors. Alma and Nils had 6 more children (Anna, Nils, Signy, Olaf, Anders and Werner). Louise became storesøster (big sister) to 7 siblings.

She married, Alf Loe Taule, in 1946. After the German occupation of Norway during WWII, times were very hard in Norway. In 1951, with their first child Wenke, they immigrated to Brooklyn. Brooklyn had a large vibrant Norwegian community. Louise was a United States citizen, which made immigration easy.

Louise gave birth to her second child in Brooklyn, a10lb baby boy, Kerry (Jerry). In less that 5 years Louise and Alf fulfilled the American dream of owning a home! Alf built their first house in Marcella, NJ. Louise was the "decorator in chief." Their third child, Elaine, was born in NJ.

Over 45 years, Alf built 7 houses and Louise decorated every one. This was her passion. Their son, Kerry, also became a master builder.

Louise and Alf moved to Naples, Florida in the 1990's. Louise's decorating style was featured in the local Naples' newspaper. She was thrilled.

Louise was a strong, independent woman---having survived the German occupation of Norway; a momentous life change when she left her close knit family to return to America with her husband and young daughter; the death of her husband, Alf and their beloved son, Kerry. She was also predeceased by her bothers Nils, Rein, Werner and her sister Signy.

She is survived by 2 daughters, Wenke Taule, husband Peter Sando, and Elaine Taule; brothers Olaf Aase, wife Beverly, Andy Aase wife, Carol; sister Anna Aase; 8 grandchildren (Britt, Eric, Breeze, Kate, Bliss, Kelsey, Blake, Emma and 10 great grandchildren (Ky, Chell, Wren, Lily, Nora, Landon, Søren, Leif, Finnley and Owen); her much-loved daughter in law, Deborah Taule, and Deb's daughter Jessica Young. She is also survived by many loved nieces and nephews in Norway and the United States.

Her ashes will be put to rest at the Millard Cemetery in Stamford, Vermont (where the Aase family lived for over 50 years) at the Taule Family burial plot next to her husband, Alf Loe Taule. There will be a Memorial Service for her family on October 17, 2025, 11AM at the Taule gravesite.
