Dear Cathy, Drew and Damen,
Demitri called me yesterday with the sad news of your loss. It truly was a loss to all who knew and loved Lou. He brightened and enhanced the lives of many. He will be remembered and missed by all who were fortunate enough to have been a part of your extended family. Thanks for sharing him with us.

Dear Mrs. Beres and family. Lou was an incredible man. I met him over 30 years ago at Lee King & Partners and he inspired me to go back to college and live out my dreams. My prayers are with you. May God bless you and keep you strong.

Dear Cathy and family,
I am so saddened to hear about your great loss. Lou was such a kind and gentle man and I admired his interest and curiousity about everyone and everything. I feel so badly that he is gone but take comfort in the many lives he touched.

Both you and the boys are in my prayers each day. My God keep you strong. You have been a role model for me and I just hope I will find the grace to continue in my caring capacity. Julie

Cathy,

My thoughts, prayers and hugs go to you and your family. Lou was a wonderful man, and he was lucky to have you to take care of him.

Dear Cathy, Damon and Drew, Please accept my deepest sympathy upon Lou's death. I "met" Lou as a "brain tumor warrior" and there was SO much more to the blessing you called husband and father! Praying that these times will be as gentle with each of you as possible. Joy Linton
