My deepest sympathy to the family. He was a great neighbor and I loved reconnecting with him after so many years when he visited Helen at Strawberry Lane. He was a very kind and caring gentleman.

I worked with Louie at Preway in 1954 - 1958. Always will remember him as a fine kind man. My father worked with him also.
