We always enjoyed Louie's BIG personality! He liked a good joke and he liked to demonstrate his dance moves, especially the precursor to breakdancing: "The Dying Cockroach." Louie was an "influencer" because he would manage to get other partygoers to join him on the floor...."a little bit lower now." We have good memories of the Island Club parties and the many Boat club events. Louie loved people and people loved him. Our prayer is that God will show favor on his loving family during the long days ahead. R.I.P. Louie

Dear Nancy,
Theron and I were so very sorry to hear of your loss of Louie. We always enjoyed our times shared with both of you. He and Theron were famous bartenders together at Beachcombers parties. We cannot be with you for his service but want you and all the family to know we loved Louie and our hearts will be with you in these upcoming days.
With sympathy, Dale and Theron

To Nancy Salvo Kruger & family, It was sad to hear of Lou´s passing. My deepest condolences go out to Nancy & her extended family. After moving back to Charleston in 1995, after a 30 year career in Atlanta, Lou was one of the first"old" guys I ran into on the waters of home. He was a fun guy to be around & was always a good guy. Then he married Nancy, one of my favorites from highschool days. May he rest in peace. Sandy Goldberg
