Dear Evelyn and Family,



I'd like to offer my deepest sympathy. Lou was a wonderful man! I know he is now resting comfortably in God's Heavenly Kingdom. Instead of shedding tears, we should all smile and be happy for Lou! Just remember, he'll have an easier time resting in peace if he knows that you are all taking care of yourselves.



Love,



Bob Gawlik
