Queensbury, NY – Louise Mae Le Clair, 91, passed away Wednesday, January 17, 2018 at Glens Falls Hospital after an extended battle with heart disease.

Born April 25, 1926 in Willsboro, New York, she was the daughter of Augustus Claude and Florence Mary (Cooley) Flora. Louise attended Willsboro Central School.

In September 1942, she married Lawrence Franklin Le Clair before his entry into the military during World War II. She and Lawrence lived in Keeseville, Tahawas, Newcomb and Long Lake, NY where they raised two sons, Gerald Lawrence and Lester William, and a daughter Bonnie Louise.

Louise worked a variety of jobs including nursing assistant, waitress, Avon representative, and finally as the receptionist for the Warren County Municipal Center in Lake George, NY. Louise enjoyed being in the thick of all that went on there and held that position for approximately 20 years until her "retirement" at the age of 83. Louise then enjoyed road trips to visit her extended family who live around New York . She was fiercely independent and lived on her own until just eight months ago.

In addition to her parents, Louise was predeceased by her husband, Lawrence; her brothers Halsey, Joseph, and Augustus Jr; her sons Lester and Gerald Le Clair, Snr and her grandson Gerald Le Clair, Jr.

Those left to cherish her memory are daughter Bonnie (Bill) Norton; daughter-in-law Marla Le Clair and sister-in-law, Mary Ann Flora. She also leaves behind 12 grandchildren: Monica (Tony) Isabella; Eric (Sara) Le Clair; Tracy (Scott) Zollo; Ryan (Kristen) Le Clair; Christine (Jerry) Deon; Diane (Thomas) Hadfield; Scott and Mark (Irma) Reddick; Andrea Louise Norton; Travis William Norton; Allison (Joe) Eustis and Amanda Jean Distasio; 31 great-grandchildren; 14 great-great-grandchildren and many nieces and nephews.

The family would like to extend their appreciation to Theresa Cahill, Dr. Gray and the nurses of Tower 2 for their attentive care and support and a special thank you to Doctor Tedesco for his compassion towards the family.

There will be no services per the family's request. Memorials may be made in Louise's name to the American Heart Association.
