Louella passed away peacefully Sunday, August 31, 2014 with family by her side.
She was born April 9, 1928 in Eakly, Oklahoma to parents Orval Goodwin and Opal Anne (Prather) Goodwin. She graduated from Alfalfa High School in 1946 then continued her education at Oklahoma College for Women in Chickasha, Oklahoma. She moved to Hunter, Oklahoma to take a position teaching 5th and 6th grade. It was during this time that she met the love of her life, Jack Hermanski. They were married August 6, 1950 and enjoyed 64 wonderful years together.
She devoted her time to raising her family and supporting Jack in the farming activities. She also found time to dedicate many hours to several community organizations which she enjoyed, some of which were The Daughters of American Revolution, Colonial Dames CDXXIIC Century, Board of Director of The Commons-The United Methodist Retirement Community, and United Methodist Women serving at local, district and conference levels. She also was a St. Mary’s Hospital Volunteer for 40 years, an active member of the Hunter United Methodist Church, Garfield County Rural Rotatory Club and served on the Board of Enid and Garfield County Public Library.
More important than community activities to Louella was family. She enjoyed spending time with each new generation that came along. Her seven great-grandkids were a special blessing to Louella. She also spent many hours researching genealogy and family history.
She was preceded in death by her parents, Orval and Opal, and a baby brother.
She is survived by her husband Jack, of the home in Garber, son Alan Hermanski and wife Christy of Garber; daughter Brenda Reinschmiedt of Garber; daughter Rhonda Koch of Valley Center, California; seven grandchildren, Bryan Reinschmiedt and wife Ashley; Ben Reinschmiedt and wife Angie; Jacob Reinschmiedt and wife Tiffany, all of Garber; Julie Ward and husband Ryan, of Guthrie; Brent Hermanski, of Garber; Suzanne Hermanski, of Kratie, Cambodia; and Keiffer Koch of La Quinta, California. She also leaves seven great-grandchildren, Tad, Ava, Jed, and Met Reinschmiedt; Addison and Ainslie Reinschmiedt, and Kinsey Ward; three sisters, Margaret Erwin, Nelda Garcia, and Alita Lamb, one brother, Russell Goodwin.
