  1. So sorry for your loss, Phyllis. We have such wonderful memories of Lou – as do our kids – as an official, van driver, parish family, and as an always smiling man who took time to tease the kids a little whenever we encountered him. We were all so fond of him.

  5. Phyllis, and your entire family, including Lou’s family as well. You were a splendid caregiver, and I am so sorry Lou is gone from this earth, but not from your heart. Much love!

  7. Phyllis and kids. Such great testaments here of Lou. He was a kind guy with a smile on his face, active in his community, and I called him a friend. I enjoyed the time spent with you guys in Florida and was appreciative of his tolerance of my very spoiled pup, Sophie. I will be in touch. Love you.
