Dear Carol and Frances,
Tom and I met your mom through our dearest friend and neighbor, the late Addie Marra. Over the 30 years we've lived here, Louise was an integral part of our social life shared with Miss Addie. We would drive to Rock Hill to visit Addie, with Louise on board. We'd stop for a delightful lunch and then would spend precious time together with Louise and Addie, both of whom continued to amuse us with stories of past experiences.
We grieve your loss and share in the wonderful memories we have, now of two delightful, resourceful and hard working women. Our deepest sympathies and heartfelt sorry.

Judie and Tom Arnold
