Mac, Paul and Jemma wish to pass on their heartfelt thanks to everyone who has supported them through this extremely difficult time. The amount of love, support and kind messages has been a massive support to us. The consistency in words to describe Louise has been amazing and heart warming to read. Our family is still devastated but know we will get through it with all your support. We are lucky to be surrounded by such amazing friends and family.

Also, we wanted to say thank you for all the generous donations for the air ambulance. With the cash also collected we have raised almost £2,500 which is incredible. Thank you to you all for your generosity.

❤️❤️❤️

In loving memory of Louise McKenzie who sadly passed away on 10th July 2025.

Louise was a loving wife to Mac, mum, nannie, sister, auntie and friend to many and will leave behind a huge hole. Louise always protected and put her family first throughout her life and they are devastated by her loss. She greeted her customers at the Avon Mill and Newbold Crown with a smile and was often quick witted in the banter they shared. Louise was a great listener to many and would go out of her way to help those in need.

The family would love for you to share your favourite memories of Louise. Family flowers only, with donations to Rugby Air Ambulance, a charity Louise arranged many fund raising events for.

Please feel free to wear pink at the funeral. Everyone is welcome afterwards to join the family afterwards at Newbold Crown, Main Street, Rugby, to celebrate and share fond memories of Louise.

Thank you for all the support and kind words offered during this difficult time.

  • Some people go through life without making a mark on others life. Then theirs others who leave a massive imprint in life. Louise was one of these people who was caring, giving and so funny with her dry sence of humour, especially her banter about Mac. Rip Louise, you will be sadly missed. Love to Mac and family. Phil & Frances 💞

I will miss you Louise. You have been my sister in law for 46 years but also a friend.
You have always been so supportive and caring towards me especially last year
I have lots of happy memories of when you and Mac took me Eddie and the girls to Billing Aquadrome the girls used to have so much fun with you both. You used to let them help at the pub which they loved too. Lots of happy family memories including the Christmas parties.
This world can be so cruel to take away the most kind and caring people too soon
Me and Eddie will miss you always. ❤️
