Lou was like a mother to me. We first met around 2002 and we instantly hit if off. Her and her wonderful husband Ed were/are the most sweet and endearing people I've come to know. I cherished my friendship with them both. My wife and I would visit Lou and Ed 6 or so times a year until 2015, from then Lou and I mostly spoke on the phone. I would call Lou every 2 to 4 months and when I would apologize for taking so long in between calls she would always say "it's okay...I know you are thinking of me and that's what's important". I last saw her in early May just before her passing. She had just come out of the hospital for the second time and was very weak. But told me it was okay to come and visit her. I am so thankful we had that last opportunity to see each one another.
We truly lost an angel on May 29, 2019. I will always hold our friendship dear to my heart and I will never forget what an amazing woman you were! Rest in peace! Love Rick
