Louise Ann Black
1917-2017
Louise Ann Black died peacefully on
February 20, 2017 at Embassy Hall, Parkland In The Valley, Quispamsis.
She was born October 15, 1917 in Winnipeg and had lived since a child
with her aunt and uncle, Howard and Pearl Robinson, in Saint
John.
She graduated from Netherwood School in
Rothesay in 1936, and afterwards attended the Spicer School in London,
England in 1937.
During World War II she served in the
British Ministry of War Transport, which was organising ship convoys
to Great Britain out of the Port of Saint
John.
She attended St. Paul’s Anglican
Church in Saint John. She was a long time member of the Katherine E.
Black Chapter I.O.D.E. and performed volunteer work in service of
local charities like the Tuberculosis Society, and in nursing
homes.
Louise and her husband, Roland M. Black,
were avid sailors and enjoyed many years on the Saint John River and
the Coast of Maine, and were members of the Royal Kennebecasis Yacht
Club. They were both strong supporters of the local community and were
long-time residents of Low Wood Estates in Rothesay, and enjoyed many
winters in North Palm Beach, Florida.
Louise was preceded in death by her husband
in 2011. She is survived by her son, John R. H. Black and his wife
Janice of Chicago, Illinois, and several nieces and nephews. They
would like to extend their sincere appreciation to the staff of
Concorde Hall and Embassy Hall., Parkland In The Valley, Quispamsis,
and to Velma Comeau, who were invaluable to her care, and other
wonderful friends who were so supportive in her later
years.
