Louise Marie Alongi, 86, of Lake Delton, passed away peacefully on Friday, May 19, 2023 at her home, surrounded by her loving family and friends. She was born on January 24, 1937 in Chicago, IL.

Louise worked with special education children for many years in the Cicero School District while living in Cicero, Illinois. Louise discovered the Lake Delton and Baraboo area which became a favorite vacation destination with her family, and since retirement, made the area a permanent residence. She enjoyed cooking, swimming, and spending time with friends and family. Her home was truly a loving and caring environment that no one ever left hungry or thirsty. Louise was married to her husband, George, for 55 years before his passing in 2014. They both enjoyed spending time traveling to visit family whenever possible. She was a kind, thoughtful lady with a generous heart.

Louise is survived by her loving daughters Betty J. Alongi of Lake Delton, and Denise F. (David) Scahill of Vista, CA; sons Dwayne E. "Tony" (Kathleen) Alongi of Palm Harbor, FL, and Robert G. (Terra) Alongi of Lake Delton; grandsons, Shawn and Patrick Scahill of San Diego County, CA, Julion Vargas of Lake Delton; granddaughters Marissa (Brian) Lloyd of Kentucky, Ashley Alongi, Nicole Alongi-Stiphany (Matthew), and Angela Alongi, all of Palm Harbor, FL; great-granddaughters Grace Stiphany, Rosemary Lloyd, and great-grandson Drake Lloyd.

A Mass of Christian Burial will be held at St. Joseph Catholic Church on Wednesday, May 24, at 11a.m. with Father Jay Poster officiating. Visitation will be held on Tuesday, May 23, 2023 at Redlin-Ertz Funeral Home, in Baraboo, from 5 p.m. until 7 p.m. as well as from 10 a.m. until the time of mass at the church on Wednesday. The family would like to extend their sincere appreciation to Agrace Hospice and Sylvan Crossings Care Center in Waunakee, WI. Louise was surrounded by love and affection each and every day on her final journey to join her beloved husband in eternal peace.

I can close my eyes and it all comes rushing back. The sun, the lake, the picnics and Louise yelling, "Mary Anne" and laughing with that warm loving smile. Summer was the Alongi family and oh how I looked forward to that big yellow car coming through the gates of the resort! The memories of yesterday are the sweet smiles of today. How fortunate we were to know such a lovely person. Words just can't express...With love , Mary Anne and Anne Roche.

Louise had a heart of gold and a smile as warm as the sun. We had the Panoramic Resort and were blessed to have so many wonderful guests who became family to us, this included Louise and her family. I have so many wonderful memories with Louise.... sharing Summer days at Devil's Lake, at night sitting around the campfire at the Resort telling stories and rides to the Wisconsin Dells. Thank you for making my life richer. You will always be in my heart. Condolences to her wonderful family. Love, Irene & Abbey

Sending my deepest condolences to every single one of you, and wishing you peace of mind knowing her wishes were met and you surrounded her with all the love you have for her.

God puts in our paths, people who will never leave our hearts, she, always happy, smiling and with that unique way that made many people love her the way we do, may God put the necessary strength in you, but have the encouragement that now there is no more suffering. I extend condolences also for Adrianny and Fernando, forever and ever our Nona...
