She was the loving wife of the late Laurie Cooney Boswell and beloved mother of Chandler Gantt Boswell II, Linda Laurette Boswell, Marian Therese Boswell Newmark, Jane Chandler Gantt Boswell Adams, and Charlotte Read Boswell Hoolihan. Mimi was the loving grandmother of Cress Juniper Boswell Johnson, Leaf Chandra Boswell, Hayden Emery Adams, Riley Walker Adams, Hollis Crosby Taggart, and Austin Read Taggart, and the great-grandmother of Read Chambliss Johnson, and Wells Eleanor Johnson. She was sister to Henry James Read and the late Adele Read Hynes, the late Elmore Howard Read, Jr., the late Alexander Louis Read and the late John Walker Read. She is survived by her sisters-in-law Jane Boswell Robinson and Natalie Owings Read, and by many nieces, nephews and friends. The family would like to express deep and heartfelt thanks to Hospice of St. Tammany, to our wonderful nurses, Donna and Ann, who attended our mother, and to the many ladies, in particular Lori, Star and Mary, who were always at her side. With the support from all of you, we were able to fulfill our motherÕs desire to remain at home. As she wished, a private gathering will be held by her children and grandchildren to honor and celebrate her life. She touched the lives of so many, and we hope that you will take a moment to honor her in your own way. She will be missed each and every day. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the St. Tammany Art Association, 320 Columbia Street, Covington, Louisiana ===================
