.The Life of Mrs. Louise Booker
Who can find a virtuous woman? for her price is far above rubies.
Proverbs 31:10
Louise Booker entered life on October, 23, 1921, born to Houston & Helen (Eggerson) Sisk in Taylor, Mississippi. She was one of nine children. Her brothers Lonnie, Robert, Willie, Herman, Murray, and George preceded her in death.
Louise accepted Christ as her Savior in her early teens. She was a member of the Mt. Hope Missionary Baptist Church where she served on the Mother’s Board and as a member of the Heroines of Jericho.
In 1941, Louise was united in holy matrimony to Robert “Bob” Booker, who preceded her in death in 1995 after 53 years of marriage. They reared 8 loving children and helped raise many others. Two of their children, Helen and L.B (Pee Wee) preceded her in death.
Louise’s family was her job and her life. She worked outside the home for Lafayette County Schools as a custodian, a cook at Smitty’s Restaurant, and a housekeeper. She loved God, she loved going to church, she loved her family, and she was a praying woman until death. We will forever miss our Angel sent to us for 92 glorious years.
On July 23, 2014, in the early hours of the morning, Louise answered the call from her Heavenly Father and left this world to be with Him. Her final words were “I’m alright”.
