Oh my gosh.. So sorry Uncle Louie passed. My heart goes out to Tammy, Leah, and Tawny. I’ve had a lot of fun over the Years with Uncle Louie from a night at a play house where we saw ‘Avita’ to a wonderful Thanksgiving in AZ with Tawny and Dominic. Then a really fun visit to his home where we went to church and the priest literally stopped and doused him with water while sprinkling the crowd as he walked by – it was sooo funny and the congregation laughed for awhile – it should be noted the priest and Uncle Louie were longtime friends and shared a fun sense of humor!! He was always laughing and had an amazing enjoyment of life! He sure loved his Suzi. I was soo happy she was able to be placed in a loving home as I know he was worried about her. He always made his girls (Tammy, Tawny. And Leah) feel super special and made sure they knew how much he loved them. He was an amazing flower decorator and made an enormous centerpiece for Tawny’s table at Thanksgiving! Very crafty and creative. He was full of love and very generous with whatever he had. Also an amazing cook! He spent hours preparing and perfecting his polish dishes (and deviled eggs) he took to the neighbors for Easter — it was soooo good!! He was always so thoughtful and had a birthday cake for Tammy as well!! Plus all the years Tammy would drive across state to visit him and bring home their home-made polish dishes they made together! Yummy!! Gonna miss that alot! Uncle Louie was loved and will be missed by all who knew him. My love, thoughts, and prayers are with the family.
