My Aunt Louise was a wonderful person, and I will miss her dearly..Throughout my lifetime, she was always an inspiration to me.
She embraced it all....the arts, the world, and life in general. She always had a fascinating story to tell from her illustrious career. Genny and I are so grateful that she was able to attend our wedding in 2007.

Louise was my Aunt and some of my best memories of her were when I was in HS and studying Drama and she would have me over to her house to "coach" me for any upcoming plays or competitions. What a GRAND lady she was! And yes, she did it her way...always with class and charm. A woman of total respect and a sense of humor that could put you on the floor. Definitely will be missed by us all

I was always baby sister. We 4 siblings had to leave home very early to find jobs during the Great Depression, so I knew my sister, Louise, ONLY through her letters that Mother saved as I grew up. Despite the hardship, Louise managed to create a beautiful life. She never took her eyes off the goal, and she succeeded. She was beautiful inside and out.

I am so proud of my Aunt Louise, who was an inspiration to me in many ways. I felt she spoke to me as an equal. She did her best to answer any questions I had about her family including her brother, my Dad (Bud), which helped me feel closer to him. I will remember her as the gracious, thoughtful and kind woman that she was.
