An Angus woman who celebrated her 100th birthday last December has died.
Louie Peffers was born on December 2 1911 in Paisley, and moved to Carnoustie in 1915 shortly after the outbreak of war to settle there as part of a large, close family.
She was schooled in the Angus town and later attended business college in Dundee.
In 1935, Louie married George Jamieson from Arbroath and although the couple had children she was sadly widowed at a very early age.
Louie later married an early retired army colonel, John Peffers, a member of a well-known Forfar family.
In 1968, on the death of her second husband, she moved to Kirriemuir.
Although a very private person, Louie was fiercely family-oriented and enjoyed greatly her two grandchildren and four great-grandchildren.
She had a great love for Scotland and all things Scottish.
In her earlier years she visited many places throughout the country and this love encompassed all its literature, music and song.
Louie served and worked with the Earl Haig Fund. She was a keen reader, a gifted embroiderer and an enthusiastic gardener all things she could no longer do in her latter years due to failing eyesight.
She spent the last six and a half years in Cairnie Lodge Care Home, Arbroath.
Her family say she was a lady brought up in a deep and abiding faith which sustained her to the end.
