Louise Holshouser Batz

First and foremost, Louise was a loving and devoted wife and mother. Her boundless love surrounded her immediate and extended family. This same quality extended to all of her friends and friends of friends. Louise was always there for each and everyone. Most importantly, my wife of 41 years was always there for me. There is, and only will be, one Louise. Louise was active in many civic and social organizations and through her family had been instilled with a great sense of her birthright in San Antonio and "Mayflower" heritage. Louisa, Louisa, my wife, my love.
