Louise was a kind and nurturing mother to me when I was in high school with Brannen. She always welcomed us with open arms and Ukrops meals. Her old ladies field hockey team beat our high school team into the ground during friendly scrimmages. She opened my eyes to church and what true kindness is. I am so sorry for your loss.

Fred, Laura, Brannen, and family, I am so sorry for your loss. Louise and I both taught at Thomas Jefferson High School. Many days, we laughed, cried, and said a few choice words, trying to make it another day. I will miss her smile, laughter, and friendship.

I was fortunate enough to grow up next door to the Tabbs in Glenburnie, Richmond, VA. Since Louise was a couple of years older than I, I admired her and enjoyed the opportunities I had to get to know her at backyard dinners, during trips to Highs for ice cream, at church, and at Thomas Jefferson High School. Her birthday and Christmas letters were clever and chatty--always worth saving! We're praying for comfort for Fred, Randy, Pat, and the children and grandchildren. What an outstanding woman of God Louise was!

Laura, Brannen, Fred and family - I largely knew LouLou through knowing Laura this past decade. I'm so sorry the world has lost this sharp, witty, accomplished, loving wife, mother, grandmother and friend and I know her legacy lives on through everyone who she touched in her lifetime.

Laura, I am thinking of you and your family. Your mother had so many talents and life lessons I am ready to employ. What a wonderful person to have in your life!

I had the privilege of being Fred and Louise server at a local restaurant in Richmond,VA. Louise was a sweet, kind and funny person. When someone you love become a memory, that memory becomes a treasure. With Deepest Sympathy.

I was a Varsity Cheerleader at TJ in Richmond & remember Louis, Becky & Gina who were the "brainy girl students" at our high school! But they always had great fun. Was saddened to hear of her Alzheimer´s disease but did not realize that same disease took her father 35 years ago! Sympathy for her children and grands & for all her close friends...Peace that she is in A HEAVENLY PLACE!!

We are cousins of her first husband, Jim Edge. We met Louise once, about a hundred years ago. A really nice "lady" with all that implies. So sorry for the family's loss. You will miss her, for sure! Love to all of you.

Surprised and shocked to learn of her passing. Did not know she had health issues. She was one of my very favorite classmates and I admired her intellect and wit. Her obit was fascinating as I didn´t realize all her many awards and accomplishments. Always enjoyed her happy birthday wishes. She will be missed. Garland Hagen

Louise was a delight to know. I was fortunate to have her as a neighbor and thoroughly enjoyed her love for nature and sense of humor. She was an advocate for the Waterford Rhye/Westmoor Lake Association contributing to the bird sanctuary and lake activities. Her spirit for life was huge and enjoyed by all. Louise wil be missed by many. Fly free my friend .....
