I will always remember Lou. I worked for him for several years at World and considered him a dear friend. I still remember assisting him at his mother funeral. It has been many years but I still remember his face.

It's the saddest thing to say goodbye to you for the last time Louis. I will miss you terribly. I'll never forget the first time Marvalee and I met you, haggling over that collectible shot glass! I am so glad you were in Edie's and my life the last six years! You are at peace now and out of pain. My love to you and Jerry.
