Louis Nava Obituary

So many Wonderful memories with Lou Nava and I will say I am a better person for knowing him. As I looked around yesterday I saw So many people from different times in Lou's life come to say their goodbyes no doubt a testament to his character. It was good as we told stories about our fun times with Lou. Today was a little more somber as we said our final goodbye to Lou. Joe gave a beautiful Eulogy and the Readings were spot on. Lou was Kind and Good and always always Kept the Faith. I will miss you Lou Nava

The sadness of losing my big brother has brought me to my knees. He has always been there for me, taught me everything I know about music, took me everywhere when I was little,( not exactly his choice when he had a date), but you know Grandma Nava, she just had a way of keeping her kids out of trouble, and you can't get into too much trouble on a date when you have a six year old holding your hand and glaring at "the girl friend" As we grew up and older, we helped each other through tough times. Lou and I shared our love of Jesus and Mary, and we both found comfort knowing we would be reunited. We talked often these past two years on the phone, and we never ended our conversations without saying " I Love You" One of the last things he told me was that no matter what happens, I will always be with you, and he held his hand over my heart. And my big brother has never broken a promise to me. I have been so blessed to have had him in my life. I love You big brother, rest in peace, and I will see you soon. Little sister.

Heartfelt and prayerful condolences from the Chicago Police Chaplains. Lou will be remembered at the Police Mass on Sunday, 27 SEP, 11:00 a.m. at Mercy Home - 1140 W.

O God grant unto him eternal rest and may Your perpetual Light shine upon him.

Offering our deepest condolences during this difficult time.
