Dear Family,
We were so sorry to hear about Uncle Lou. He was the quiet man and lovingly known to us as the chief. He will always be fondly remembered, especially our Florida trips. Peace be with you all.

So sorry for your loss. I will always have fond memories as a kid climbing into the station wagon and going for rides. But my favorite memory is the company picnic at willow grove amusement park. Thanks Lou for making my childhood a lot brighter! RIP. love Nancy and Max
