LOUISE CARMICHAEL Obituary

CARMICHAEL, Louise R. (Tofu) A lifelong resident of West Roxbury, died peacefully at home, on November 18, 2025, at the age of 98. Louise died as she lived, surrounded by her family. Louise was the beloved wife of the late Frederick Carmichael. Devoted mother of Elaine Carmichael and her husband, David Connelly, the late Frederick Carmichael, Jr. and Jean White and her late husband, John "Jack" White. Cherished Nana of John and Andrew White; loving sister of the late Josephine Martin and John Tufo. Also survived by many nieces and nephews with whom she shared a special relationship. Louise will best be remembered as the matriarch of her family, a role she readily embraced. Leading by example, she showed how to handle life's challenges with grit and determination. We will miss her generosity, guidance and above all, her unconditional love. Relatives and friends are invited to attend.
