Yes they were a delight and were the original rare bird report in the valley.
We always hoped to run into them sooner than later during a trip. In fact, if
we heard they were at a place we would go there just to find out the latest
scoop. I sure miss those days. People telling people about birds instead of
ebird, facebook, texbirds etc.

Back in the day when I birded the valley more...It was hard not to run into Red
and Louise somewhere and often at multiple places. They served as sort of
bulletin board for what was around and who was birding in the valley..... Know
I have many memories of them together down there and am sure many others do as
well.

Lucky to have birded during the time they did in Texas. Louise was a
sweet person and complimented Red always in their search for birds.
Don’t remember seeing either one of them birding alone, they were
always together, what a love story.
Some of us older birders now beg the question? Which one of our friends,
or us will be next?
Texas birds and TEXAS BIRDERS, always #1.

It is great sorrow that we have lost a great lady of birding. She
passed away peacefully on Thursday afternoon in Ohio. Her and Red were
our best friends for over fifty years. We had great times together.
