One of my best friends for 51 years. We had so many great times together.
I have so many memories of the things we did together. I will always miss our get togethers.
I mourn for my friend.
Our heartfelt thoughts and deepest sympathy.

Our Sincere Sympathy,

My wife,Peggy, my two sons and I went to a Yankees game with Lou, Louie and Gina more than 20 years ago. Peggy did not know Lou very well back then. Lou drove us all in his van. After the game, Peggy said Lou is a saint. She saw how Lou took care of Gina the whole trip. Like I said, Peggy didn’t know Lou well back then when she called him a saint!! 😱
>>>MUST BE WHY I DO SO WELL TODAY! 🙂
(A LITTLE HUMOR TO KEEP THE CANDLE BRIGHT)
I ALSO WORKED WITH ROSEANNE IN INCLUSION A FEW YEARS AGO (WHEN WE HAD TEAMS!).
GOD BE WITH THE FAMILY AND HIS LOVED ONES.
& TO ROSEANNE – WISHING YOU STRENGTH AND SENDING LOVE YOUR WAY.
We have all lost a wonderful friend. I am so happy that I and my family have had the pleasure of knowing Lou all these years. Goodbye brother, I will see you again one day.
A few Lou memories,
Lou always did things in a big way. We shared an office/prep room, when he went on a candle making binge. He would have six or more hotplates melting wax – all colors. Yankee Candle eat your heart out! Matt went crazy!
Another episode was when he was doing reloading. Lou had multiple disassembled car batteries on the rear lab table so he could extract the lead for bullets. Apparently he forgot that Cindy was picking him up and waiting in the parking lot. There was a tirade in the bullet factory.
Needless to say Lou was colorful. A nicer more caring person you could never know! Lou, you will be missed.
I will miss Lou. He has been a part of my life , the good and the not so good since I was 17. A great Dad, a great grandfather, and an all around great man. I am so glad we have stayed friends through it all. So sorry for everyone, and a special prayer for you Roseann.
Lou was truly a brother to me for 51 years. We shared so many good times,had such common values and loved to bust each other’s chops . Our get togethers at his house where he would always cook a feast were incredibly happy times!
Deepest sympathy to Roseanne and his wonderful family
Rest in peace Louie.
