Lou was one of the greatest friends a person could have. I treasure the many years we spent together. His children Smokey, Kilroy Ambush Underfoot (AKA Picklehead) and Pufferbelly are a wonderful constant reminder and living presence of him. Feel free to inquire abut them anytime. His presence is missed everywhere he was a part of.

I was really shocked with I was searching the web for some of the railroads I have worked on and I came across this posting that Lou had died. I was one of the first volenteers who help get trains rolling on the OC&T. I was with Lou on the first move of equipment up the valley to Titusville. At that time not all of the trees had been cut back and when the train came to a tree trunk too close to the tracks both Lou and I got off the train and sat on the trunk so it would be low enough to let the train pass. As you can imagine Lou was a little bigger then I was so when the train got passed Lou got off the tree and about launch me into the woods! I have many many stories about Lou, many of which were told over and over at dinner over at PaPa Carones. Lou usually said what was on his mind good or bad but he always had a big heart and meant well. No matter what anyone says the OC&T would have never got running without Lou, I can only hope that he found out that Heaven has a railroad!
