Louise C. Boschetto

Louise 'Lee' Boschetto passed away peacefully in her home on November 8, 2013 surrounded by family. She was 91 years old. Louise was proud to be a native San Franciscan and was born on January 30th, 1922 to Eugenia and Giobatta Cavagnaro in North Beach. A graduate of Heald College in 1942, she met her late husband Angelo Boschetto in 1944. They were married for forty-seven wonderful years till his passing in 1993.

In 1950, Angelo and Louise purchased Able Window Cleaning, a North Beach three person window cleaning company and built it to what it is now, Able Services, the largest privately held facility services company in America. Louise was very proud of being the company's Matriarch and until July of this year was driving to work every day.

Louise was also very proud of her Italian and Genovesse heritage and was very passionate of her hobby of cooking regional Italian cuisine. Louise was a proud member of the Salesian Boys' and Girls' Club, The Little Sisters of the Poor, The Santuario Madonna Della Guardia and The Liguri nel Mondo. She attended daily Mass at Saint Brendan's Parish.

Louise is the cherished mother of Paul and Michael Boschetto, beloved mother-in-law of Barbara Boschetto, proud Nonni of Christopher, Matthew, and Angelo John Boschetto. She is the loving sister to the late Paul Cavagnaro. She is also the loving sister-in-law to Alberta Boschetto, her late sister-in-law Belle Boschetto and late brothers-in-law Dominic and George Boschetto.

Louise also leaves behind many loving cousins in the Bay Area and Italy and many dear friends. Especially, everyone in her Able family.
