I did not have that many chances to meet and talk with Louis. I did meet him at a Carbonneau family meeting near Hartford, CT about ten years ago that I think was celebrating Aunt Lucille's 90th birthday. He seemed quite outgoing and easy to interact with. I was surprised to find out that he worked as an actor. I did not know that there was an actor in the Carbonneau family.

Lou was a customer of mine, and I had just seen him days before. We passed each other, greeted one another, and something in me felt the need to turn back and say more. We spoke again, and all I can remember is his smile and him telling me to take care. He was truly an incredible person, and this loss saddens me deeply. My prayers are with the loved ones he leaves behind, for peace, comfort, and understanding during this time.

We've been friends from theater in Lewiston since we were young, and I don't think I have a bad or unpleasant memory, nothing less than charming ones. Louis was the best - he loved his family and came back often to visit, loved acting, and was just a genuinely good person. I'm so sorry for us all that he was taken in such an unexpected and tragic way. He would be the first to help the other victim of this senseless accident. His memory will be a blessing to us all. Rest in peace, Louis!

Lou always had a smile on his face and always gave his all with auditions. As a casting director in NYC, I had the pleasure of interacting with him for many years. Very talented and kind man. This is tragic and unfair. May he rest in peace and may his family be in all of our prayers.

I didn't know Louis but I do remember him from school. I remember he was such a nice guy. He treated everyone the same. It didn't matter if you were popular or not. Jock or Geek. He didn't care. More people should be like him. RIP, Louis
