My name is Mike Command and my Father (Jim) was part of the infield for Creston in the 1940's with Lou. My Dad often spoke of Lou and always in high regard. I am sorry for your loss as 1/2 of that infield passed on in the last couple of months. My friend John Peters kept me posted on Lou's health. I never met him but he must have been a really good person.
