Louise Chambers Green1931-2017Louise Chambers Green, 86, of Austin, TX and formerly of Pensacola, passed away on Wednesday, July 19, 2017. Louise was born on January 28, 1931, the youngest of three daughters to Charles Ramond Chambers and Clifford Georgia Roberts in Erie, PA. Her father passed when she was a young child; therefore, she was raised by a single, strong mother during the depression. As all childhoods do, hers shaped the woman she would become. Louise was fierce with a kind, generous heart. She was quick to defend the underdog and argue that which she deemed unjust. After graduating high school in Detroit, MI, Louise worked diligently as a young adult and assisted her mother when her mother's health necessitated it. It was on such a trip to the deep south that she met her husband, Joseph Franklin Green, and this love is what ultimately transplanted the fiery Yankee to the south. After marrying in 1950, she became the mother of two children whom she raised while journeying with Joe across the southeastern United States. Although Joe and Louise were rarely in one town or state for many years (due to Joe's work with Rainbo bread), Louise certainly left her mark and touched the lives of those she met in each new place. To know Louise was to know a Scotch-Irish woman who "came from good stock," believed in hard work, had a generous spirit and maintained a true sense of loyalty to those she loved. She was preceded in death by her husband, Joseph Franklin Green.Louise is survived by her son, Dennis Green (Amanda), Austin, TX; daughter, Joanna Carter of Corbin, KY; grandchildren, Jason Green (Crystal), Austin, TX, Misty Davison (Jeremy), Cedar Park, TX, Alec Green, Dripping Springs, TX, Taylor Green, Austin, TX, Christina Stacy (Dustin), Lexington, KY, Amanda Donaldson, Louisville, KY, Rebecca Carter, Frankfort, KY and Georgianna Stacy (Kyle), Lexington, KY; 11 great-grandchildren, Austin, Skyler, Ayden, Haley, Cara, Tristan, Aidan, Madeline, Eleanor, Connor and Logan.Graveside Funeral services will be held at 11:00am, Thursday, July 27, 2017 at Barrancas National Cemetery, located on the grounds of Pensacola Naval Air Station, where Louise will be laid to rest with her husband, Joe.
