Dear Cousins Doris, Courtney, Travis, Jennifer, Lee Charles & Diane, and grandkids, I was going to write a new memorial but after reading the below, there was so much to Louis that God blessed him with and all of us were blessed to be the recipients. We absolutely love and miss him still. There are so many words to describe the man we all called Louis. He was so genuine and loving, devoted, respectful, kind, caring, honest, hard-working, thoughtful, unselfish, considerate, compassionate,...

What a sweet cousin we were blessed with. Remember him and miss him all the time. A giant in all the virtues, Integrity, Humility, Compassion, Love, Common Sense, and on and on. I treasure the memories of the time when as a kid I would walk over from the shop to Aunt Janie's to visit and Louis would always have time for me about guitars, cars, science and math in general. Our prayers are still with him.

Dear Doris,

I knew Louis since elementary school. However, it wasn't until my father died in 1961 that we became good friends. Just a few weeks after my father died, Louis came by to pay his respects to my family.
I thought "what a nice guy!" since we
were only acquaintces and hadn't seen each other in years. This was just a prelude to the wonderful character of Louis.

If I couldn't understand something, Louis would explain it to me so I could easily grasp it. He amazed...

Doris,

I had so many great times with my ol friend Louis. As teenagers, Louis and I pursued learnig the guitar together. I cannot tell you how many, many times we got together and played and sang together. In fact, I still have some of my old reel to reel recordings of some of our jam sessions to this day. I always admired him for his gentle manner and his steadiness. Although we went our separate ways later on in life, he was always in my heart as my buddy with the blue, 1969, 4...

Dear Aunt Janie, Cousins Doris, Courtney, Travis, Jennifer, Lee Charles & Diane, and grandkids,

There are so many words to describe the man we all called Louis.

He was so genuine and loving, devoted, respectful, kind, caring, honest, hard-working, thoughtful, unselfish, considerate, compassionate, fun, interesting, a musician, artist, a true genius and a loving husband, father, son, cousin, brother, and friend. Louis knew no strangers - his heart opened wide for everyone. He...

Doris, Travis, Courtney, Jennifer and Mrs. Stein.

My deepest sympathy to you all in the loss of your husband, son and father.
Lou was with us for such a short time, but he lived his time to the fullest, accomplishing much, always generous with his time and a help to us all.
I enjoyed working with Lou very much. He taught me a lot and “carried” me through many projects with his technical expertise and guidance. We will all miss him very much – I already do.
Our best...
