Louise G. Gibson, 94, of Stony Brook, New York, passed away peacefully Saturday, August 6, 2016.
Born June 28, 1922, in Ellwood City, she was the daughter of the late George W. and Katherine Young Gayle. Her maternal grandparents were George S. Young and Clara Hamilton Young. She was married for 58 years to Wilfred A. Gibson, who passed away on June 3, 2004.

She had a life-long love of gardening and was passionate about the environment.
Survivors include three daughters, Susan (Michael) Mikos of Shorewood, Wisconsin; Pamela (Edward) Kriss of Big Canoe, Georgia; and Robin Gibson of State College, Pennsylvania; a son, Brian (Lisa) Gibson of Swansboro, North Carolina; eight grandchildren and two great-grandchildren.
