Special Aunt of many nieces and nephews.
 
Much loved friend of the late Franca Vecchio. Long-time and cherished friend of June Zuke, Shirley Bumbacco and Velma Bruni who she regularly enjoyed having long lunches with, reminiscing at the Hong Kong Restaurant. Louise brought her sense of humour to every occasion. She treasured her family, friendships and welcomed everyone to her table.
 
Due to the Covid pandemic, a private family service will be held. In Louise's memory, donations may be made to the Sault Area Hospital Renal Dialysis Care Fund, the F.J. Davey Home Foundation, or the charity of your choice.
 
The family would like to thank all her amazing caregivers at the F.J. Davey Home (Cedar Grove Floor One). Their love, compassion and professionalism made Louise's stay a most enjoyable one. As well, we would like to thank the excellent doctors, nurses, and staff at the Sault Area Hospital Renal Dialysis Unit for their unwavering support and dedication for the past four years. A special thank you to the Home and Health Mobility team for the exceptional care they took transporting Louise to and from her dialysis treatments.
