My deepest condolences to the Girolami family. I will never forget Lou's quiet, positive demeanor on the job, and it was always a pleasure running into him and his family outside the office as well. Lou will be missed, but never forgotten.

To Lou's family,
It was a shock to learn of his passing. I worked with lou on many projects including 2 recently at CIGNA even though I am in Bloomfield. He always has such an unflappable demeanour regardless of what challenges were thrown at him. He never complained and always had kind words. Even when I was new to CIGNA during the CLXP project, I would always think " Lou and Robert - my CAPM unflappable duo- have my back".
I want you to know that he will always be remembered and come alive through our memories of him. Please find comfort in the belief that he is at peace and will always be a guardian angel for all his loved ones.

To the entire Girolami family:
I was proud to have been associated with Louis as not only a friend but a trusted colleague at CIGNA for the last 11.5 yrs. He was my first team leader at the company and we collaborated every day on various issues with two (2) different teams during that time. Our desks were always close together, and he always displayed grace, humility, and kindness to me and always was ready to lend a hand as well if you needed it. He was extremely proud of his children's and his wife's accomplishments and always conveyed kindness to me (even when I interrupted his lunch frequently). I will always remember Louis fondly in the days to come. I appreciated the opportunity to spend the majority of my working career with such a fine gentlemen.

Please know that my prayers and thoughts are with you at this time. I am totally shocked to hear of Louis's passing. I remember Louis, as well as Richard and Maria, so fondly from the old neighborhood.

Dear Girolami Family,
Please accept my deepest sympathies. I am so saddened to hear of your loss. Being with your family as we traveled across China and Tibet touched our lives in a very special way. Your easy, loving relationship reminded us all of what's best and beautiful between fathers, sons, brothers and parents. That's a bond that can never be broken. Not even by space, distance or time.
May God comfort you through this dark hour.

Please accept my deepest sympathies. I worked with Lou many times over the years and can't say enough good about those times. I was shocked to learn of his sudden passing, but hope, like many of us at CIGNA, you will be comforted by all the good memories that you have of him

I met Lou very early in my 24 yr career with Cigna. It was evident that he was a kind and gentle soul who had a steady disposition and strong work ethic. I loved the twinkle in his eye and kind word he had for each and everyone he seemed to encounter. From our conversations over the years, I could tell what a wonderful husband and father he was.
My heart goes out to all of his family. Know that his warmth of spirit and memories will live with everyone he worked with. I will always remember Lou and as a someone who loves bicycling it comforts me to know he was doing something he truly enjoyed.
Love,
Barbara (formerly Straub) Firrera

I was saddened to hear of the sudden passing of Lou. I worked at CIGNA for years and remember Lou fondly. I always enjoyed when he talked about his boys, because he was so proud of them and it showed. He was a great person, and I am so sorry.

I'm sorry I never met Lou. From speaking to Diane over the many years that I have worked with her he sounded like a great guy. My heart is sad for David, Matthew, Diane and the whole family.

Dear Family and Friends,
We all know Lou was an exceptional guy. We remember his keen sense of humor and his ability to be right on the mark when asked about his opinion. It wasn't judgemental in any way just a 360 view of the situation and an answer that had amazing prospective. It was an honor to be a friend and I thank him for the times we shared together. I want to express my heart felt sympathy to his family and Lou will remain in my thoughts and prayers.
Love,
Mike & Donna Matarese
