She had been in poor health for a number of years, according to her son, Roland P. Beauregard.
Mrs. Beauregard was famous for appearing before the General Assembly and the county and city councils to offer her comments on bills. She always was impeccably dressed and always was concerned for the poor and downtrodden. Mrs. Beauregard also ran unsuccessfully for county executive and for Annapolis mayor.

I remember sitting in Chick & Ruth's in the late 80's as Louise explained how Downtown Annapolis needed some inexpensive hotels that young people could afford. She had proposed filling in the city dock and building there.
"Good one" I thought, "if you fill in the city dock, there'd be a whole lot of less expensive hotels in Annapolis."
So, I agree with B. Bland's assessment, there should be 'a plague' for her someplace.

Mrs. Beauregard made you love Annapolis, partly because her love for the town was so obvious.She
made people feel you had a responsibility to
