He lived what I would call the true American Dream. He had family he loved deeply, built true relationships with everyone he knew, and was the voice of reasoning for so many. You will be missed deeply, but your memory is so strong, you will never be gone. RIP Uncle Louie

Sounds like he was a wonderful man. As long as the good he did in life is remembered, a piece of him will always be with you. Still the loss is painful, and I wish you peace. Blessed Be!

Not how did he die, but how did he live?
Not what did he gain, but what did he give?
These are the units to measure the worth
Of a man as a man, regardless of birth.
Not, what was his church, nor what was his creed?
But had he befriended those really in need?
Was he ever ready, with word of good cheer,
To bring back a smile, to banish a tear?
Not what did the sketch in the newspaper say,
But how many were sorry when he passed away.
How lucky am I to have been his daughter. Life will be hard now without your guidance and wisdom. Now we will see just how good of a job you did in raising me. I will do you proud dad. I feel confident in the lessons you provided. I will love you forever.
RIP
Your Runt

Uncle Louie was always there for our family. When his brother Joe, my dad, passed away, Uncle Louie was present, helpful, caring, and understanding. I will always love and remember him. I pray my Uncle finds comfort now as he joins all those loved ones who entered heaven before him. I know my dad will look out for him up above.

I loved working with Lou, when I was on the ambulance. This was about 30 years ago. For Christmas one year, Lou wrote a letter to my boss about what a pleasure it was to work with me. I will never forget that.
