  5. My condolences to the family. Me and Lou were great friends in grade school, and later me and John. I spent so much time with them that I felt like family. We lost touch but I feel I lost a best friend in hearing this news. Prayers for you all.

  7. I am so sad to hear about Louie’s passing. Please accept my condolences and know that you are in my prayers. I would run into him occasionally at St. Raymond’s during lunch. We were in the same grade school class together and he and I were a famous pitcher/catcher combination coached by the famous Baxter Leisure. Louie could bring the heat! I remember serving so many masses together and fuzz ball games in the schoolyard. We also went to St. Mary’s and we’re Dragon’s. So many memories I will cherish forever. Rest In Peace my friend.

    The passage of time will never change or heal the feelings you have over the loss of your beloved Louie.

    God entrusted your family with a wonderful and exceptional brother, brother-in-law, uncle, cousin and friend; but He needed his remarkable excellence to assist in fulfilling God’s heavenly plan with mortal men.

    God has now endowed him with angel wings by which he will always watch over you, walk beside you, wipe away your tears and leave his mark in your journey of life. Louie will never be far away from your hearts; and will continue to shower you with his love like never before.

    May God bestow upon you His choicest gifts of strength, courage, comfort and peace to get you through this most difficult time.

    May Louie’s memories always be blessings to you and your family and remember God’s promise of everlasting life beyond this world.

  15. I am saddened to hear of Lou’s passing. Lou and I were grade school and high school classmates. Occasionally we would walk home from school together as he lived 4 streets past mine. We served masses together, did a science project together, and spent time together in the schoolyard in the summer. He always had a smile on his face, which is one of the many endearing qualities he had. I miss him. My condolences to the family. He and you all are in my prayers.

  19. I am so sorry, I just learned of Lou’s death. Lou was my business’ real estate broker and helped us find a building to purchase that was perfect for my law office in 2005. I used his services again in 2020 and he was telling me of his struggles with pancreatic cancer, but he was determined to beat it. I am so very sad to hear of his passing, and my prayers are with the entire Ojile family. He was a wonderful man.
