Our love and condolences go out to The Alonzo and Sorrentino families. We loved Louis for the man he was that gave us your beautiful families. We hurt because of your pain. We have such a real hope of seeing him again as he died faithful to the God he loved. We long for that time to see your pain turn to a happiness that we cannot even grasp at this time. May Jah hold your hand until that day.

I will miss seeing your Dad at meetings and Super Bowl Sunday, I admire his always being there when he could. I think your mom is going to be extremely proud of the way all of her children took care of their father. What a great example you all are when it comes to how to care for ailing parents. Much love Carla Fredrick xo

Brother Louis always had a gentle smile and a genuine presence that made him so approachable. I enjoyed his well thought out comments and moments when I put my hand on his shoulder during my Microphone assignment. I love you Mel.

We met your dad in his later years but enjoyed having him in our congregation. Your mom and dad raised some wonderful kids who obviously did everything in their power to care for them when they needed it the most.
We love your family and our hearts are hurting along with yours with the loss of Lou.
Much love and hugs to each of the Alonzo and Sorrentino families.

We were so fortunate to experience Lou´s amazing salsa and to watch several Bear´s games with him. We adored his colorful commentary and knowledge of statistics. But a highlight was having him in our congregation where we could give him hugs regularly. We can´t wait to resume our hugs...right around the corner. Our deepest love and sympathy to all Louie´s family and friends.
