Dear Evangelia, Laura and I are so sorry to hear about Louie. He was one of the happiest and most pleasant people I have ever met. The two of you made a wonderful couple. I wish you and your family warm and happy memories of Louie.

Evangelina and Family, Having just returned from Florida and hearing the tragic news my heart is heavy and breaks for you all. We all were so happy in early November when discussing our collective retirements each of us after 45+ years in business. The loss of our favorite eatery pales in comparison to that of Louie and the memories and hopes we had for the future. May his memory be eternal and as we Irish say: May the road rise to meet him... RIP

Evangelista, my husband Stuart and I are extremely heart broken learning of Loui’s passing. We never had the pleasure of meeting him but we are certainly grateful and appreciative of having tasted the delicious food he so skillfully prepared for his customers.
We pray to God to give you and your family strength and comfort during this difficult time.
May his memory be eternal.
