Not sure what to say?

I had the pleasure of working with Luis at MDS Communications. He would always greet me a hug and was always positive. Helpful in any way he could to anybody. Loved to hear about the "good ole football days." He was a joy to hang out with on break walking around the building with and always had a smile. He was one of the good guys and is loved and missed. Rest in peace my friend. My prayers go out to your family.

Luis Sharpe one the last great St. Louis Football Cardinals thanks for the memories and your contribution to help others

I was stunned to hear of your passing. We fought the same fight together back in the 90's. I am glad that you finished the race sober and happy. To have survived addiction as you did is very rare. I am so proud of the work you did with concussion protocols and assisting professional young athletes on how to battle addiction. you taught them to honor that they were powerless and needed divine intervention. You helped so many!

I knew Luis from his Phoenix days. He worked out at the L.A. Fitness where I worked. We became friends and would work out together. We had since connected on fb. I will miss him. He was always very generous with his time and kind words.

My heartfelt sympathy to The Sharpe´s family and friends during this time of grief and sorrow.

Luis was one of a kind. He had a profound impact on so many people, including my father (pictured), who he played on the Cardinals Offensive line with. We love you Big L, and will surely miss you.
