Not sure what to say?

I just found this website. I was thinking of Louise and regretting that we had lost touch some years ago. We traveled together many years ago, some time in the late 1950s. I am a native of Nashville,TN. My mother had known Miss Nettie Brcok of Memphis who took young women on a tour of Europe. (She had taken my mother and my older sister and was a friend of one of my grandmother's) Louise and I roomed together and although she was several years younger we checked immediately. and she...

I traveled with Louise many years ago in a small gathering of young women. I am from Nashville, TN but was with Louise in this group led by Miss Nettie Brock from Memphis. Both my older sister and my mother had both traveled with Miss Nettie. I roomed with Louise and enjoyed her enormously. Sadly we eventually lost touch. I was thinking of our travels today and decided to go online and see what I could find. If anyone of her family finds this please know what a delightful experience that...

Barely a day goes by I do not think of Louise. My fishing days are less without her.

To the Benners Family,
Bob and I were stunned to learn of Louise's death. We have known her since she came to Sun VAlley. I will never forget when she visited us in New York and would not go in the elevator without us.!!!
We loved her spirit of life, her warmth, her generosity. We spent many happy times with her at dinners and parties. We will miss her. We send the family our deepest sympaythy. You all are in our prayers and thoughts.

Dear Billy,

I am so sorry for your loss. I have many happy memories of Louise in Memphis and of you when you were very young. We were neighbors for a few years in Dallas, too, and Louise always made every occasion more fun. She was a dear and wonderful person. I know that you will miss her very much.

I only had the please of knowing Louise for less than a year. But I knew her long enough for her to inspire me with her determination to keep shooting and enjoy life despite her physical limitations. I feel very honored to have had the opportunity to have known her.

Dear Bill and Rick:
We want to express our most sincerest condolenses to both of you on behalf of Alicia , Audley and myself. We loved your mom and have great memories of her in the years we spent in Dallas. We will cherish her spirit and generosity forever.

Dear Benners Family,

We were so saddened to hear about your Mother's sudden passing. We met her in Sun Valley in 1994 at Blaine County Gun Club. She befriended us then and stayed a friend through these many years. She was a wonderful person...so warm.so gererous to others...and of course, so spunky..she never seemed feel sorry for herself, but just kept on going..and finding new and creative ways to keep shooting and living life! We will miss her greatly and we hope that the memories...

Weezie, I will never forget your smile when I mentioned Raider your dog. You will be missed always.
