I worked with Lou at Nappe Babcock on Commerce Rd. many years ago. She and I had stayed in touch through the years usually with a Christmas card. Lou was a unique person and she had a wonderful sense of humor. I will miss her cards each year, but I know she is in a much better place. May God give peace to her family and friends. Helen Riggan
