      My condolences to Louise family. I only had the opportunity to know her for short time. Bingo won’t be the same without her. I learned so much about her home town on our crest bus rides. She loved to go outdoors every chance she got. She always offered you candy or chocolate when you visited her. She proudly told everyone she was 100 and still able to attend activities.. Rest in Peace. HUGS to all the family .

    I had the privilege of meeting the beautiful soul through my work. She was a wonderful woman with a lot of spunk. I would often pass her room and just go in for a little chat. I will miss them little chats and the candy she would always offer. She spoke very highly of her family and never failed to mention them whenever we met. Weather it was in her room or on one of her many walks. She was a special lady who touched the heart of many. RIP Louise. My sincere condolences to the family. She will be forever missed.
