Kernersville – Mrs. Annie “Louise” Dunn Hart, 78, passed away on Wednesday, June 15, 2022, at Forsyth Medical Center. She was born on May 28, 1944, in Forsyth County to Elmer and Pauline Davis Dunn. Louise retired as an Administrative Assistant after 30 years of service at Salem Carpet Mills, Inc. headquarters in Winston-Salem, NC. She was a very active and faithful member of Clemmons First Baptist Church where she was a Sunday School Teacher for 50 years and a member of the choir for 25 years. She also served on various committees, including the Board of Trustees and Church Historian, which was instrumental in organizing Women’s Ministry Fellowship.

Louise loved Jesus and was ever grateful for her salvation. She prayed daily for those that she loved, knew and met to “Seek the Lord while He may be found, call to Him while He is near” – Isaiah 55:6. Louise lived by this daily goal: To see Jesus more clearly, to love Him more dearly, and to follow Him more nearly.

Avery Dunn (wife, Elizabeth); her brother-in-law, Bud Sheets; and many special nieces, nephews, great nieces and nephews, and great-great nieces and nephews.
