Ask anyone in the Evangeline region of Prince Edward Island who Louise Arsenault was, and you will likely be asked, “Which Louise?” But ask them about Mémé Louise and there will be no doubt about who you are talking about.
In her 20s she went to work in Moncton as a housemaid and met and fell in love with Felix Arsenault, who was also from the Evangeline region. After getting married, they moved back to PEI, eventually buying a small farm with a garden, chickens and an orchard. Over 18 years, Louise had 14 children: Ten boys and four girls.
As soon as the first grandkids appeared, she became Mémé Louise, even to her own children! Louise had 37 grandchildren, then 57 great-grandchildren, and counting. She never said no to her grandkids and had a lot of fun taking photos with them and using smartphone filters.
