Louise Riggan Temple, 100, of Germantown, TN, went to be with our LORD JESUS on October 19, 2020.  She is greatly missed by all who love and know her.  After college she was very active serving JESUS as a Pastor's wife in Norfolk, VA; Huntington, WV; Memphis, TN; and again, in Norfolk, raising her seven children, teaching school, and later baby sitting with the many children she loved in Suffolk, VA.  Louise was preceded in death by her husbands, Dr. J. Gordon Riggan, Sr., and Mr. Robert R. Temple; her parents, Harold and Louise Wells; her sister, Molly Tyson; her brothers, Rev. Harold Wells and Mr. Robert Wells; and her Grandson, Mark Lenderman.

Giving all of the glory to JESUS the MESSIAH, Louise's life and Homegoing affirms Proverbs 31:28 and Psalm 116:15 in GOD's Word: Her children rise up and call her blessed.  Precious in the sight of the LORD is the death of HIS saints.
