Louise Emerson Brooks, RIP

This blog notes with sorrow the passing of a hero for equality, Louise Emerson Brooks, who was a major voice in Integrity as a journalist and videographer. She was beloved wife of a stellar Friend of Jake's, the Reverend Susan Russell. After a long fight with cancer, Louise was finally called home this afternoon.  We send our thoughts and prayers to Susan and her family during this difficult time.

Shocked and saddened...

...but not without Hope. May Louise rest in peace until she rises in glory!

Comfort to Susan, and all who loved Louise (including Luna&Juno, in their tail-waggy kind of love)

"We will celebrate her life with a service at All Saints Church in Pasadena on Saturday, September 8th at 11am with a reception to follow."

IT, is there any way you (and BP) could represent us at the service? Anyone else from FoJ's in the SoCal area, potentially?

I don't think we are going, JCF, as we have previous commitments on Saturday (and it's about a 2 hour drive each way for us). We'll have to see.
