Coming into the church for Sunday School, Louis was always the first smiling face I would see when coming in the door. He would always give me a hug and make me feel happy. This would start my Sunday off good. I love to hear him quote the Lords prayer at the end of the adult Sunday School Class. I will miss him so much and my prayers are with the family. Louis leaves behind so many memories and I know he loved the Lord. May God Bless you all. Mary Adofo

To The Family,
You have my deepest sympathy. Louis is the only person I knew that never meant anyone any harm. What a wonderful person he was. He worked with my father like a son for many years.

Walking into the church on Sundays won't be the same. As soon as he would see me, he always said "here come trouble". He always had a smile on his face. He surely will be miss. My prayers go out to the Burkett Family...
