Two years later still remembering Lou. Every now and then I hear a rumor or bit of gossip about someone or something in the car business or Insurance business and want to call Lou to share it with him. He was the last buddy left for me to share these things with. Very sad. I will always owe Lou a debt of gratitude for encouraging me to become a Finance Manager. He also got me my first full time finance job at Charlie Cusack Ford in 1995. It turned out to be a very successful 10 year career...

Dear Linda, David and Monica,

Emma and I, Donnie Whitworth sends our most sincere condolences to the family and love ones.

Lou is very special to me. In March 1972 he was my training partner. He took me under his wing and kept me alive in my rookie year on the Akron Police Department. We have shared many memories and I know how much he loved his family so I understand how much you will miss him.

May God bless you and give you His peace. Donnie & Emma Whitworth
