Hollomon-Brown FH September 2025
Louise Marie Rosario Bosio Booth, at the age of 101, passed away peacefully in 
her home on Sunday, September 7, 2025. A lifelong Norfolk resident, Louise was 
born July 24, 1924.
Named "Maria Luise Rosario Bosio," Louise was the 6th and youngest child of her 
parents, Carolina Marguerite Sosa Rubin and Secondo Giavonni Bosio.
Louise was preceded in death by her by her husband of 69 years, Franklin Henry 
Booth, of San Diego, California, and by her five siblings: Henrietta Lena Bosio 
Westlake, Mario Secondo Bosio, Mary Agnes Cecelia Bosio Picone, Virginia 
Marguerite Bosio Culter Mays, and Catherine Luz Bosio Brammer.
As the matriarch, Louise's large family survives her: Daughter, Frances Louise 
Booth Barker of Norfolk; Son, Edwin Harold Booth (Mary Ann) of Charlottesville; 
and Daughter, Barbara Teresa Margo Booth Macomber (David John Macomber) of 
Harrisonburg. Seven grandchildren include: Donald W. Barker III of Norfolk; 
Louise Marie Barker Harshman of Canada; Robert Stevens Barker of North Carolina; 
Sherry Booth Johnson and Shannon Booth Critzer of Charlottesville; Alixandra 
Macomber Reid of McClean and Brittany Booth Macomber of New York City. Ten 
great-grandchildren and one great-great-grandson complete the immediate family, 
including 47 nieces and nephews. Louise also remained in contact with her 
cousins in Rivarola, Italy.
Louise followed current events and voted proudly in every election until her 
death. She was smart and beautiful, but most also, loud and funny. Her humor 
bubbled up and people became alive when she entered a room. To her family and 
friends, Louise was a shining star and we thank God for her.
A Christian wake service will be held at 5 pm. on Friday September 12th at 
Hollomon-Brown Funeral Home, 8464 Tidewater Drive Chapel, where the family will 
remain until 8 pm. A Mass of Resurrection will be celebrated at 11 am on 
Saturday, September 13th at St. Pius X Catholic Church. Burial will follow at 
St. Mary's Catholic Cemetery. Condolences may be offered at www.hollomon-
