Louie enjoyed going to the dirt tracks, deer hunting, fishing, spending time with his great grandchildren, and his grand dogs. He enjoyed going to breakfast daily with his friends. Louie had a great sense of humor; and often had a story or two to tell. He was a man with boldness that served his squad well in Vietnam. He worked the majority of his life as a body repair man, and finished his work in the heating and cooling industry. He was a good friend to all he knew.
