How truly blessed I am to have known and worked with Lou for sixteen years…to say I will miss him is an understatement. My condolences to all of his family and friends.
My thoughts and prayers are with the Claveau family always. Lou is very much loved and missed by many. I had the privileged of working with him for 11 years and learned alot from him.
++++R.I.P Lou++++
just found out about lou so sorry to hear this he was a special person to me we had some really good times at kaf-tech my prayers go out to the family God rest his soul
I was thinking of you today Uncle Lou… About the man you were and how proud I am to of known you and to have learned from you. We had alot of laughs you and I, and I would trade anything for just one more. Meme and Pepe have moved from Pinellas back to Vermont. The house is empy now and so is my heart. A few days ago I remember thinking without you and the family in Florida anymore, there is nothing left for me there, No one calling me home. But I was wrong, you are still there. And I will visit you often. I get choked up writing on this page and wish I was really writing to you. I wish I knew you could read this. I wish you could give me just one more knowing wink to let me know your proud of me. Sence you left Ive done things I know whouldnt make you proud. I havent been there for the family like you would of wanted me too… like you would have been. Your loyalty and dedication to family was unwavering. I honestly believe you are the glue that held our family together. I hope to be atleast half the man you have proved time and time again to be. I’m trying to do everything I can for the family. As you know times are hard and I have a family of my own now. I will do whats right and make you proud. I miss you very much uncle Lou and love you even more. I will see you soon.
