Louise F. Heller (nee Vasques) passed away peacefully on January 14, 2024. Louise was a 1974 graduate of Cardinal O’Hara High School and a 1992 graduate of Delaware County Community College’s nursing program. Louise’s love for nursing was very evident in her 19 years as an LPN at Riddle Memorial Hospital, followed by a few positions within nursing homes. Louise was a single mother who proudly raised 4 children on her own and did it with such pride. You could always find Louise at her children’s sporting events handling the books, running the concessions, helping teachers out at Our Lady of Charity, running her children around to various events, or even, sometimes relaxing at the Brookhaven Swim Club. Louise was beyond selfless and always put her children and others first. Louise met the love of her life in 2005 whom she married in May of 2007. Louise and Patrick enjoyed their beautiful marriage by traveling, relaxing, reading books, going on long drives, or simply taking a dip together in their backyard pool. Louise was blessed with many grandchildren who lit up her life. Being a grandmother was Louise’s biggest blessing.
