Lou, you were my mentor as I followed you into the juvenile bureau. You were again my mentor as I followed you into the senior sergeant slot. My kids always remember you buying them candy when I would bring them to the department. (You STILL owe me for those dental bills!) God bless and rest in peace my friend. 3X1

Lou Foster was class. He treated new officers as if they were family. I regret not ever having Lou as a patrol sergeant. He was truly one of SRPD's Finest.

I joined SRPD in 1972, and Lou was the first one to welcome me. We had many good conversations and laughs. He was a nice guy and will be missed. My wife Rae, will always remember his kindness and humor.God bless you, 3X1.

Nice person, respected officer and always willing to help someone. It was always nice to run into Lou around San Rafael and catch up to what was happening in our lives.

Lou and I met sometime after he retired when he visited SRPD or HR. He will be remembered as a good man who left his imprint on many. God bless you Lou, rest in peace.

"Officer Foster" trained me as a crossing guard at Laurel Dell School a LONG time ago. He made such a fantastic impression on me that I still remember him after all these years. I used to love telling friends about my experience when reminicing. He made me feel proud of that position. He was a wonderful person.
My condolences to the family.

I was so glad I had a chance to visit with you a few weeks ago. Your memory and wit was as sharp as ever. You were a great example for me throughout the years of working together. You will be missed by all your many friends. You and your family are in our prayers.

Lou, you are in good hands. Our heart goes out to you and to your family.
Until we meet again.

Lou was a very special person - quiet but friendly, always with a smile, softly spoken but smart. I will miss him at our Footprint events. He was a Footprint member for years and also a member of Marin County Association of Retired Employees. His loss will be felt by many. Ann Greory, San Rafael

Lou,
You were my mentor and, in my estimation you did an outstanding job for me and all those who preceded and followed. You are to be honored as one of the few cops who made the San Rafael PD one of the finest in California. I salute you.

Lou, you will be missed by many. You left a legacy of quality service for those of us who followed at SRPD. I often think back to the conversations we had over the years.
