D. Louise Converse

November 19, 1930 — October 16, 2024

D. Louise Converse (nee Blair), 93, of Akron, passed away peacefully in her sleep on Wednesday, October 16, 2024. She was the beloved wife of her late husband Maurice “Maury”.

Louise was devoted to her family, she had a warmth and kindness about her that made even strangers feel instantly comfortable. She was an outstanding homemaker and cook who took immense pride in hosting family holiday gatherings and bringing everyone together. She cherished her grandchildren more than anything, and greatly enjoyed supporting and spending time with them. Louise enjoyed bird watching and was especially fond of bluebirds. In the past years, she contributed many volunteer hours to community organizations that supported local charities and hospitals. Her kindness touched the hearts of many, and her memory will live on forever.

In addition to her husband Maury, Louise was preceded in death by her granddaughter Amanda Converse.

Left to cherish her memory, are her loving children, Anita (Jeff Halpert) Converse, Gregg Converse, Brian (Tina) Converse, Jeff Converse, and Bruce Converse; her granddaughter Jennifer (Jim) Fandrich; and great-grandson Brayden Fandrich.

Visitation will be held from 1:00pm to 2:00pm on Monday, October 28, 2024 at Paquelet Funeral Home (1100 Wales Rd NE Massillon, OH 44646). Following the visitation, a graveside service will be held at Calvary Cemetery where she will be laid to rest.

Just like the Bluebirds she loved, Dorothy Louise can now fly over the rainbow...
