I am so sorry to learn of Louise['s passing. We always had so much to talk about when we met at the class reunion at Sidney. My mother and her mom were the cooks at the school for years and went to school with Gordon, such memories, I know that she will be missed greatly but is in a much better place. Our prayers are with you all/

Louise and I worked together for many years at the Corps. I have so many fond memories of our time together working in Exam. She watched my boys grow up and always remembered them on their birthdays, as well as knew all my grandchildren's birthdays too. She and Pete would come over every Christmas to visit when all the kids were home bearing gifts for everyone! We enjoyed our many visits hearing all about Cheryl,Jason and Paul and their lives through the years. Her quick wit and always saying what she thought will always be remembered. I saw her last month and I also know how hard it has been on her since losing Pete. However, I will always admire the way she accepted her situation and tried to be happy and make the most of it. She leaves me with a very sad, but grateful heart for having known her.

Louise was a very special person. I knew her at the Corps and used to see her and Pete walking around the neighborhood. Am glad to have known Louise and will miss her. We spoke fondly of her at a Corps Ladies' luncheon on the day she died, but learned of her death later.

I have many fond memories of Louise while we worked for Little Rock District. She could light up a room simply by walking in.

I know how difficult Louise's last year had been for her. She could laugh about the fact she had Alzheimers but losing Pete took much from her. Steve I enjoyed our visits over the years and during the time she was in Chenal Heights. I know she loved her family very much and was very proud of each one. We will always treasure her friendship.
