Not sure what to say?

I went to OV but I didn't have Mr. Graham as a teacher but as a boss at Mc Donalds on apple ave. He was very dynamic and a great leader. One example I will give is he had me load the fry baskets . I hustled and got it done in a relatively short time, I didn't think anyone noticed but Louie did. He said nice job you can go home now. I told him I still had a couple of hours to go on my shift he said don't worry about it I'll punch you out. THAT is the kind of person Lou was. People would walk...

I knew Louis (and Dan) so many years ago that we both still had hair. I don't think I have seen him since graduating from high school but I still remember him well as a good friend and a good man.

My deepest sympathy to Jane and the family in your loss of Lou. Both my children's lives were enriched having him for a teacher and coach while at Orchard View, His kindness and consideration was appreciated. I enjoyed working at OV and with Jane in Community Ed and always enjoyed his jokes and smiles. May God Bless you all and bring you comfort.

I had Mr. Graham as a football coach at Mona Shores in the early 90's. A very inspiring man and will be greatly missed. Will never forget no matter how cold it was he always wore a t-shirt and shorts while we were a bundled up at practice.

I had Mr. Graham for English and and as a coach in football, track and wrestling. He was truly a great man. I always appreciated him praying with us before games. I will be praying for the Graham and Knoll family.

I had the privilege of having Lou as an English instructor last year at MCC. He was an amazing person and made learning both fun and interesting. The community has lost a great man. My thoughts and prayers go out to his family and friends.

God bless you lou. Thanks for coaching me and many other Muskegon bears. My prayers are with your family and friends.

I knew Lou, Danny and Mrs Graham very well from our days at Edgewood Elementary in the Heights. Mrs. Graham was the school crossing control officer. They were very nice people.Danny was also a good friend. Sorry to learn of Lou's passing.

They say that for what you have done... but for the hole you leave behind... See you again, Lou.
