Lil,Judy,and family, We can’t begin to express how much Lou has meant to us. He was such a positive influence in helping to shape Donald’s business career. We will always cherish the fond memories of all our shared times together(Chuck’s Steakhouse, Hawthorne Inn, our many visits to your home, and participation in important family events). Lou was such a personality and a genuine supporter and mentor. He will always be a part of our fondest memories. Donald and Marie Camerato

Lil, it was an honor and pleasure to have been aquainted with Lou over the years – so upbeat, always a smile, congenial and fun to chat with. May he rest in peace. Warm regards, Jim & Linda Nugent.
Dear Lil, Judy, Lori & Family, My fondest memories of Lou began when I worked with him and Bob as a real estate broker. I truly appreciated all of the knowledge and experience they shared with me. When I moved on to become Tax Collector and Lou came to Town Hall he always stopped by to brighten my day with his smile and cheerful greeting. Most recently I got to visit him during his stay in Arden House and we shared our memories of the .good old days.. May you find comfort in the love he had for all of you. Lou will be fondly remembered by all who knew him, I will keep him in my prayers. With Sincere Sympathy
Dear Lillian, Judy and family, On behalf of Eva and Joe Widger, Kathy Widger and family and Pat Faris and family, we would like to extend our condolences.
