    I owe my EMS Career to 3 Ladies and Louise was one of them. The other 2, Nelda Campbell and Pat Still, have already passed.

    My warmest thoughts and deepest sympathy are extended to the family in this time of loss.

    Sorry for the family and friends of this nice lady. I would see her in Fran’s and she always had a smile. We some times would make small talk and she was a delight to talk with. Go in peace sweet lady.
