LoHud newspaper obituary notice

Louis served our country proudly during the Vietnam War in the Air Force. Louis recently retired from the Rye City School District, where he served as the Head Custodian for Milton School.
Prior to that he was the Head Custodian at the Mt. Vernon High School for 16 years.

Well known for his work with the CSEA, Louis' stubborn, but fair attitude enabled him to focus his energies on helping others by becoming the voice for so many members in Westchester County for the past 20 years plus.

He enjoyed spending time with his family and friends while traveling as much as possible. He was always the first and last person on the dance floor at any event and his laugh would be heard the loudest after one of his jokes.

Family will receive friends from 7-9 PM Tuesday and from 2-4 and 7-9 PM Wednesday at the funeral home.
Mass of Christian Burial 10:00 AM Thursday at Sts. Peter & Paul Church, Mt. Vernon.
Interment to follow at Rose Hill Memorial Park, Putnam Valley, NY. In lieu of flowers contributions may be made to the American Cancer Society, 2 Lyon Place, White Plains, NY 10601.
