I spoke with my Dad today and he shared with me in detail Uncle Lou's final hours.  I feel the need to share the strength of Keri Lynn, Uncle Lou's daughter.  She was with him during his final days and was embracing him when he took his last breath.  She is a thoughtful, generous, loving and loyal daughter who stood by her father until the very end. 

Uncle Lou had a beautiful and loving companion in his life named Helen.  She was a lovely friend and confidant and spent hours upon hours with him during his final days.  She along with Keri were strong advocates for his care and comfort.  They were his soldiers fighting his fight when he no longer could.  He was blessed to have these brave and courageous woman in his life.
