Louise Haltom

Louise Kent Haltom, 69, of Denton, NC, passed away peacefully on July 9, 2025, at the Hospice House of Davidson County after a long, courageous battle with cancer. Louise was born on December 28, 1955, in Greensboro, NC, to Daryl and Mary Elizabeth Kent, who preceded her in death. She is survived by her husband of 30 years, Glenn Raeford Haltom Jr.; her stepson, Glenn Raeford Haltom III, and his wife Amber Haltom; her brothers, Peter Kent (Nita Lescher) of Annandale, VA, and Robert Kent (Amy Kent) of High Point, NC; grandchildren Glenn Raeford Haltom IV and Katelyn Brooke Haltom; nephews Stuart Kent of Richmond Hill, GA; Jackson Kent of Nuremburg, Germany; and niece Emery Kent of Atlanta, GA. Louise was a 1974 graduate of Western Guilford High School and went to work for North Carolina National Bank in the Guilford College community. She left NCNB for Truliant Federal Credit Union, where she spent most of her working career. Louise loved being granny to Glenn and Katelyn. She also enjoyed flea markets, auctions, yard sales, gardening and tending to the many animals she raised with Raeford. One of her favorite pastimes was sitting on the front porch with Molly, Bigfoot, and Milo, her fur babies, watching hummingbirds flock to their feeders. A celebration of life will be held at the home of Jane Haltom, 3410 Surratt Road, Denton, NC, on Sunday, July 13, 2025, at 2:00pm. A special thank you to Amber Haltom for all the care, love and support she gave Louise in her final days.
