Mary Louise Morrison Kennon passed away quietly in her apartment at Touchmark retirement community, Helena, Montana, at the age of 84.
Louise was born in Mount Holly, Arkansas, to Grace Manning Morrison and Lewis Morrison, a Presbyterian minister. Louise graduated from high school in Prattville, Alabama, as Valedictorian. She attended two years of college at Southwestern at Memphis, now called Rhodes College, majoring in Mathematics. She married and had three daughters.
