"Death ends a life, not a
RELATIONSHIP."
Morrie Schwartz
Louise was one of those Earth Angels who stayed anonymous while spreading little acts of kindness, especially in crisis. Personally, she deeply loved her six children and served nearly 50 Foster Children passing through her home. She was an excellent cook and shared her endless servings of food with her open door policy. Professionally, she minimized her successful input without crediting herself for the wisdom gathered during years of life experiences. Her expertise guaranteed the success of our work.
Louise would never dwell on a crucial challenge. She would immediately get busy on solving the problem. She was a worker bee. Her fingers were constantly helping while her mind worked forward to what else could be done. Young and old alike were able to trust her as her heart remained fully open without judgment. Oh, she had her opinions, but she would release them later, not in the presence of those who could be offended.
During 28 years of friendship, I knew her as 'Weezie'. We shared both joy and sorrows on her white porch swing and we would encourage, support, and accept each other unconditionally. She was hysterically funny and her laughter was salve for the soul. After years of cancer, her physical body has come to an end. The spirit of this Earth Angel will linger in the memories of those who knew her. The relationship between Louise and myself will forever remain lovingly in my heart.
