Lou's neverending love and friedship to our familty was a great gift. His wisdom and support helped to coach my daughters to reach out for opportunities beyond my imagination. I am truly thankful for that.
You were Toby's best friend (he is looking for treats in your pocket!)
You will be dearly missed.

FOR THE GOOD TIMES

I worked with Lou from when I first started with Motorola in 1966 in Purchasing at Augusta Blvd. We both worked for Chuck Margilio and Al Ueck. I lost contact with Lou in later years and was not sure when he left or retired from Motorola. I retired in 2003. Lou was a true gentlemen and took me under his wing way back in 1966. He will be missed.

His wink, his smile, his trend setter style. Lou wore a diamond bracelet of his name, an ank ( the Italian horn) on a gold chain, watches, rings...the man had BLING. Always dressed immaculately,
his nails done, his pants pressed, always tried to look his best.

Time was different, tolerance was different, but what a life he had.
Enjoyed his cars, golf, but always had time for his family, friends and those who mattered most.

Lou was a great friend and fun to be around. His warmth, generosity, and caring will be missed. I'm sure now he's in a better place with unlimited golf, on the best course, with no Tee-Time required.

My deepest sympathies to all who knew and loved Lou. He was a fun person who was very kind to me in my early days with Motorola. I will remember Lou fondly as a generous spirit who freely shared his time, knowledge and compassion with myself and others.

Lou was a generous, loyal, and loving friend to our family. We will truly miss all of the laughter and great memories that he brought to us. His never-ending support has led the girls to great opportunities in their education and future careers. His friendship brought joy to our family for many years. We send our deep condolences and support to the Respino Family. We will truly miss our dear friend Lou.
