Happy Birthday, Louise!

Ask and you shall receive! Follow up on Louise V. A. Stanley.  Thanks to the Little Sisters of the Poor, for having the information we were looking for, Louise  was born on May 31st, 1881  and died on  May 9th, 1972.

Louise  was placed in the care of the  “Little Sisters of the Poor” on July 13th, 1971  –  her daughter Elsa Monson was her emergency contact person of record. And, the last address of record  was 3940 North 20th Street, Saint Louis, Missouri.

Something that I remember Louise, having a  special talent for was making of  breakfast “coffee cakes” and the next best favorite “pumpkin pies!”   There were a good number of her children living  and all doing well  and Louise would take turns living with different ones  – depending if they had small children  and if they had the room for her to stay.

It would be nice,  if more  homes were built on property  to  where a second  and smaller home  could be built, just so that if you have a large family, you can easily accommodate this situation of having members of the family stay  with you,  but, in separate living  quarters.  So close  and yet, no schedule  of anyone is  upset  to make room for  “Mom!”  Also, if you have no family the extra home   makes for  “income rental” – every one needs extra income.

Let me be   the first to send  to you,  Louise   –   “Happy Birthday, Louise!”  After all   –  May 31st is just around the corner!
