Obituary for Louise Ferch Dribnenki
After battling post Covid heart problems for many months, Louise Dribnenki, age 88, passed away on June 30, 2021 at the Pioneer Medical Center where she went when her needs exceeded Lorinda’s abilities to continue to care for her from home, even with the help and support of Hospice and family.
(This was written by mom before she passed away)
Louise Ferch Dribnenki was born on her grandparent’s farm in Acequia, Idaho on September 16, 1932. My mother taught school, so I went to various schools until the 6th. grade, when we purchased my grandparents farm and I went to school in Acequia until I graduated High School in 1950.
I went to secretarial school in Twin Falls, Id. I graduated in 1951. I worked for the Idaho Power Company until October 1952 when I moved to Burbank, where I lived with my Aunt Lula and worked in downtown Los Angeles for Richfield Oil Co. until October 1957. This was the year I married Gene Dribnenki and moved from Burbank to our farm just outside of Vida, MT. We farmed there until 1970 when we bought our ranch north of Big Timber, MT.
I started selling Neo Life health products in 1968 and am still in the business 50 years later, although I have slowed down!
We were blessed with 4 children. Karla Dribnenki (Jay) Billings, MT, Brenda Morning & daughter Tiersa of Billings, MT, Lorinda (late husband, Don) Brewer, Big Timber, MT and son Sterling (Destiny) Brewer of Belgrade, MT, Dana (Karen) Dribnenki and sons Tracer & Landon of Big Timber, MT.
It has been a wonderful life and I have been so blessed! I’ll see you all again on the other side. It’s been a good ride!
