I cried today for the two angels I miss the most. Please give Brittany her birthday hugs and kisses for me.
I miss you both so much. Please give us the strength that we need to go on each day without the both of you. Some days it is just so hard but I feel the strength from both of you so it helps me get through the days.
All my love--

I dreamed about you on New Year's Eve and I was crying because I could see you but not touch you. You told me there was no reason to cry and that you were so very happy. I continued to cry and you said I was the only one crying and that it was not my time yet and I should not shed tears for you.
I miss you so much and I never got to say goodbye. I thought you would be home and I did not want to cry about Brittany and upset you in the hospital.
I know you and Brittany are together. Please stay close until I am there to be with you both.
You had your usual smiling face and were conforting me which is exactly how you have always been.
I love you Uncle Louie and this family lost two amazing family members in a matter of 3 weeks. The pain is so hard and I pray to get peace by knowing you two are in a better place.
We miss you and love you.

Happy New Year, Babe. As you can expect this New Year's Eve was very solemn. Tori came to stay with me but was asleep by 10:00. So I watched the ball go down by myself and wished you were with me to have our toast and our kiss for the New Year. I know you were here with me in spirit but was not the same. I miss you every day and it does not get easier as people say. You always said I could handle things if I had to but I never wanted to do this alone. I need you to give me strength and guidance for every day is a challenge. Miss you and love you. All my love forever, Annie

Babe, I miss you so much and I keep having these meltdowns. I am trying to be strong but it is so hard without you. We did everything together and were so happy even after 40 years. I know you are here in the apartment with me cause I talk to you all the time but I feel and see you everywhere. Christmas was really tough cause you loved it so much always snapping pictures and watching the kids get so excited. I know you were here with us watching. Please help me to be strong. I will love you forever. All my love, Annie

Today has been such a hard day. This was your favorite holiday and I miss you so much. Your huge smile and heart warming laugh and watching the kids open all their gifts soon without you there will be just tormenting. How you would take a picture of each person with every single gift they opened still makes me laugh. It's been hard to hold back the tears today for many reasons, but mainly because I miss you so. I love you daddy, there will never be another man in my life that will even come close to you.

It is still so hard to believe that you are not here. To lose you three weeks after Brittany was just heartbreaking. I know that you and Brittany are together with the rest of our loved ones. Please continue to stay close and one day the rest of us will be joining you.
You made an impact on so many lives and you are missed by everyone. Your selfless actions will never be forgotten.
Merry Christmas Uncle Louie. I love you very much.

Although we did not see each other very often, You are my brother and I love you very much. I found this guest book by googling your name. I called Annie today to tell her Tanya and I are going to have a baby. And if it is a boy, He will be named after you and dad. Louis Angelo Lodato. I wish I could tell you in person, Mom also. This will have to do.
To Annie and the kids, I know this holiday season will be hard on you as it will for me. Just know We will be thinking of you all often. I know we know little about each other, but mabe that will change. I hope so. Love you all. Tom...

I miss you daddy more than you will ever know, more than I could ever imagine. I'm trying really hard not to just shut down because I don't want to disappoint you, but it's so very hard and such a struggle every day to know you are not physically here with us just tears me apart. The kids miss you so much it breaks my heart. I am sure I will be writing in here often as it will help me to go on.

I love you

Requiem aternam dona ei Domine;et lux perpetua luceat ei. Requiescat in pace. Amen.

Eternal rest grant unto him O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon him. May he rest in peace.

Louie and his family remain in our prayers.

Uncle Louie, you will surely be missed by many. Your laughter, smile, and willingness to help anyone in need surely showed the kind of man you are. To my Uncle and Godfather- I love you and miss you. I am sure you are still smiling as you know you left us with many precious memories. Rest in peace and know how very much we loved and treasured you. I have a picture of you and Brittany (my two angels in heaven) on my desk. We love you!
Dianne, Derek, Nicholas, and Andrew
