Guestbook

  1. I remember Louise when she lived off Merrimon she was my Aunt Naomi and Uncle Larry Anderson’s neighbor. She was always so kind to me. Sorry for your loss

  2. Debbie, I’m so sorry to read about Louise. I would see her at Rite Aid lunch counter and we would talk about old times when her and Bob would come to your house every weekend. She was always so sweet and kind. The last time I saw her she said she had moved to Battery Park. May she rest in peace, she missed Bob so much.

    • Thank you for remembering our family … lots of good memories … and yes she missed Uncle Robert so much – now they are together forever! Hope you are doing well

  3. My sincere condolences to the family of Louise I worked for her Husband Capt. Branson in the early 70’s for many years and we became close friends, They both will truly be missed. Lt Willie Allen and Barbara

  4. Debbie,& Family, Remembering your Aunt Louise and all the good times! We always loved your mom, and all the sisters, and have good memories of trying on their high heels when we were growing up. They were all so pretty, and always classy ladies, who were so sweet and kind. I know she also will be missed. Keeping you in my thoughts. Love & prayers. Rita

    • Yes … they were good times … and stylish!! Thank you for remembering us in your prayers … Love to you my friend!

  6. Debbie you may not remember me but did Louise’s hair for years and I also did your hair too. I just found this obituary on line and I was shocked. I am so sorry I didn’t know before now. I can’t help but think she is happy being with the love of her life. Hope you are doing well and may God bless you always ❤️
