She was married to John Seidel for 22 years, and they had four children, Dustin, Sommer, Shannon (who died in a car crash in 2006) & Corey. 
 
Lou Ann continued her education and received her bachelors degree in 1978 from UT Permian Basin in Odessa. Later, she went on to obtain her Master’s degree in Counseling from Texas State University. In 2000, she married her soul mate, Randy Wallis, and her family went from four children to seven. They now have 13 grandchildren. 
            
Lou Ann has an entrepreneurial spirit, and over the years has had several cottage industry businesses so that she could stay home with her children, as well as being a 5th grade teacher at their school, New Braunfels Christian Academy.

Lou Ann was in private practice as a Licensed Professional Counselor for 20 years here in New Braunfels and feels blessed to have been a part of so many wonderful people’s lives. In 2016, she and Randy started The Masters Roofing, a roofing and remodeling business. The names are significant to them, as they acknowledge God as their provider, and strive to honor Him in all aspects of their business as well as their personal lives. In May of 2017, Lou Ann retired from her counseling practice to join Randy full-time in the business.
