Mary Louise Biscay Bidegain (98), the middle child of Jean and Julie Biscay, was born on July 25, 1921 in Madera. She graduated from Madera High School and went on to become a hairdresser, owning her own beauty shop in Madera. Louise later met and married Jim Bidegain, and through their 52 years together, they enjoyed visiting relatives in France and traveling to many countries around the world. She was fluent in French, and a wonderful aunt to her many nieces and nephews.
After her husband passed away, Louise managed the ranch and later moved to Cedar Creek in Madera. She lived an exemplary life and was a model for the next generation… and was an excellent cook! The family appreciates the service of her caregiver, Lucille Gamble and the entire staff and friends at Cedar Creek, they were wonderful.
