Lou Strawn

Thinking of this wonderful person. Miss him and all the friends from Cole. Bernie Horak, 68

I miss you Dad - I´m starting a new life chapter and I´m unbelievably happy, for the first time in a long while (maybe you know). Wish I could share with you, face to face. I love you.

I have known Lou from our high school days at Robert G. Cole (class"67) on Ft. Sam Houston and we were also roommates at South West Texas State University for our freshman year. One memory that I will never forget his when Lou allowed me borrow his cherished Red Falcon to drive back to San Antonio to celebrate my birthday with my folks. Apparently, Lou forgot to mention it was a standard (3 speed on the column). It took me awhile to figure out what a clutch was. Needless to say, I got stopped...

We miss Lou, Janet & Buddy.

As in-house counsel at Northwestern Mutual, I worked with Lou quite a bit over the years as we were a client of his. He was a great lawyer and a great guy and I was in shock to learn of his unexpected death. He and his family are in my prayers. He will be missed.

Dear Ann,
I am so sorry to hear about the death of your husband. With deepest sympathy to you and your family. Gene Swenson ( retired from Culp Associates)

I worked with Lou at McElree Smith. He was truly a special person. Always upbeat, happy and with a kind word for everyone. He will definitely be missed.

I am so saddened to learn of Louis' passing. Louis had a wonderful smile that was so contagious. He was so good nature, always positive person and was a great tennis teammate. He made everyone around him a better player and person. My thoughts and prayers go out to his family.

Louis and I graduated from high school together and were roommates at SW Texas State University. Great memories last forever and we had many. I thank him, from my heart, for those times.I hope someday we will meet in Heaven and share our stories one more time.
My prayers are for Louis,his family and his friends.
