Dearest Bejarano Family,
I am so sadened to hear of the passing of my dear friend and other father, Lou. I have known the love of your family for 53 years. It is hard to believe that he is gone from this earth. He is now in the arms of his family and friends who have preceeded him. Look up to the heavens at night and you will see a new twinkling star.

Familia Bejarano -

I am saddened to learn of Mr. B's passing. I have fond memories of sitting in Mr. and Mrs. B's kitchen and backyard -- taking in the very warm hospitality that they seemed to always offer.

My children and I visited "Deena's Dad's Lighthouse" two summers ago along with my entire family (parents, sisters, bro-in-laws, etc.) and I made sure to point out that a very great man helped spearhead the preservation of an important Long Island landmark. To me, it's a giant monument to the man that he was.

Our thoughts are with you all.
Adam G. Enfield (late of Malverne, NY)

Dear Longtime friend Valerie: It is always sad to see the obituary of a good friend, and Luis Bejarano was a friend for the decades of my career at Newsday in the photo dept. I remember so many trips to Kings Point when Lu was there, and I still have the great Christmas greetings from the talented Bejarano family. We are certain that Lu will rest in peace, and that will be a lasting comfort to you Val and all the children. All the best, Tom Maguire
