I will always remember Louise for the helpful and caring heart she and her husband joe had for me and my son Kade 20 yrs ago when I was a single mom just entering the workforce. She was like a 2nd mom to me for many years. I will dearly miss her

Louise was a most kind and caring individual. She (and Joe) spent many trips to take care of my aging mother in Beaumont when she was alone and could not drive. She was always willing to step up to help when we were in need. We will surely miss her. May God bless and comfort her family during this time.

Louise and I attended elementary school together at Tyrrell Park Elem and I believe she also attended Cheek Elem. I saw her about 25-30 years ago in King Saver grocery store and we stood there and reminisced about the past. Haven't seen her since, but have thought of her many times. She was a sweetheart and I know she will be missed by all. My sincere heartfelt sympathy to all the family. Maybe Mrs. Babb will remember me. My prayers go out to you all. Sincerely, Charlotte (Vandewater) Tantillo Beaumont, TX

I can still remember when Louise first came to work @ Turner Personnel in Nederland.. I was driving back and forth from the Sulphur office.. We had some GREAT times working together! I believe Kenneth Cormier was Manager.. As receptionist for the last several yrs in Sulphur, I will certainly miss hearing the smile in her voice when she'd call for Mike or Julia in personnel! My prayers are with the family, friends and her co-workers!
