I am deeply saddened by Uncle Lou's passing. He was the last survivor of a formidable group of siblings, raised in the Depression, suffered through World War, and built this nation through the end of the 20th Century. He was a thoughtful and introspective man who cared deeply for his family and his Italian-American heritage. He will be missed. The Palmieri family extends our condolences and prayers to Adrienne and our Trapasso cousins.
