Louise Pugh Watts Treadway Kelley

Louise was born in Buford, Georgia, a noted cheerleader, basketball player, and homecoming queen - truly setting the stage for her life. Vibrant and exuberant, Louise was always the life of the party; her upbeat and positive energy influenced many over the course of her life. At the age of sixteen, she moved to Atlanta, where she later secured employment with the Office of Secretary of State. Louise married Dr. Ramon Watts, assisting him in his medical practice as well. They had two children, Paula Watts Avery of Atlanta, and Dr. Forrest Watts of Cumming. Later, Louise worked for General Motors Credit Union as a loan officer. At General Motors, Louise's generosity and compassion shined, and she regularly assisted lower income families secure much needed loans. Then, Louise married Curtis Treadway, and later, Louise married John Kelley of Houston, Texas. Louise was very beautiful and very much a lady. Not only was Louise the First Miss Lake Lanier, noted for her striking resemblance to Elizabeth Taylor, Louise was also recorded as Lake Lanier Park's 50,000 Visitor. Additionally, Louise modeled for major department stores in Atlanta to support her family and herself. Louise is survived by her two children, and her grandchildren, Brooke Watts Holcomb of Cumming, Dalton Clay Munday of Cumming, Collin McNeill Avery of Atlanta, and Carson Alana Avery of Atlanta.
