Not sure what to say?

Louie, I think of you often - your strong spirit and gentle soul were inspiring. As you rest in the loving arms of our Father in heaven, understand you're missed by so many. Lovingly, Bill

Louie, I can see the Garcia-Ortiz shingle hanging. You two partners can rehash all 'the memories' and do so in the peaceful solace of heaven. I think of you often as so many do and if you had to leave, you timed it right - you would not want to see what is taking place in the great country that you and I served to protect/preserve. Love you and miss you, Louie, Bill Day

With the date of his passing just hours away, just want to say:
Louie, we miss you. But at the same time you're now refreshed in the arms of our Lord and Savior, reunited with Eileen and, otherwise, in a blissful place.
Memories will always live within me of the experiences we shared: The tennis matches, basketball games, family gatherings and conversations filled with laughter.
Rest in peace my friend, Bill Day

Miss you everyday Loui

Years ago, I had the privilege of taking a dance class with Eileen, and she even gave me a private lesson once at her home. She was a lovely person, and I was devastated when I learned of the accident that took her life. I'm now very sorry to learn of the loss of her husband and their children's/grand children's father/grandfather, but what a gift that Eileen and Louis can now be together again. God bless all of you.

Louie was a good friend and neighbor. He will be missed on Island Drive. My prayers are with you all.

Our family enjoyed a long and valuable friendship with Louis and will surely miss him. We came to know him through his work, where he was always the consummate professional. We want the extended family to know what an honor it was for us to call Louis our friend.

My heart goes out to Louie's family. He was truly a GOOD man and I'm enriched to have known him. Louie fought a courageous fight but now he's comforted and renewed in the arms of his Lord and Savior. Rest in peace Louie. Love, Bill
