Richard,
I am so sorry to learn of your Mother's passing. She was a wonderful lady and I know how proud you were of her and how much you loved her - how good of a son you were to her. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers. Laura Morris Graham
Remembering this sweet teacher and all she taught my brother and sisters and myself at Keystone Elementary School. I followed in her footsteps and also became a teacher. Thank you for giving so much to so many.
Prayers for your family, Heaven gained a beautiful Angel!! she was my favorite teacher, she was the best.
I am so sorry to here about your mother, she was one of my favorite teachers. I had her in kindergarten in 1971-1972 year. One Saturday I spent the whole day with her when I was in her class and we baked cookies and looked at pictures. When I graduated from high school she came by my house and brought me a photo album of pictures she had taken when I was in her class and had saved all those years which I still have. I will always treasure the memories I have of her. Several years back I went by and saw her and bought all four of her books that she had written we had the best time just catching up on old memories. She was one amazing person. Prayers for your family.
Louise will always be remembered by many of us who met weekly to share our burdens pray together for one another. She ALWAYS had a sweet loving smile on her face.
We praise God for bringing her into our lives.

Louise made a point to introduce herself and her church to me when I first joined the faculty at Keystone. She remained a good friend after she retired, and we shared many hours talking about "our kids" and families from Keystone. We continued to correspond after she moved to Knoxville. She made a wonderful, caring impression on everyone she taught, their families, and those she taught alongside. I will miss her. Holly Johnson
