I graduated with Lou from Honesdale High School in 1969 . I enjoyed his friendship in and out of school and on the soccer field, basketball court and baseball diamond. I am sorry for your loss, the world is a poorer place without Lou. Ron Rowe

Over thirty years knowing Lou as he did what he loved best, creating beautiful landscapes, luckily one on our property, we knew him as a generous and kind and wonderful friend. He always had clippers in his back pocket and would show up to surprise us with a new plant or tree. We think of him all the time as we enjoy the work he did here. We will continue to do so. We will miss his smile. Our condolences to his family. This is a heartbreaking loss.

Condolences to Lou and his family during this difficult time.I worked with Lou back in the 70’s. He was a hard worker and even though we’re the same age, I looked up to him for guidance. Your work is done now Lou, so it is time to rest my friend.
