After serving 25 years with the Canadian Arm Forces Lou returned to NL to retire and in his words was "living the dream." Nothing made him happier than enjoying the great outdoors. Fishing and riding his Harley were his passions.

Lou was highly skilled photographer within the armed forces, and he captured award winning moments in time, from natural disasters across Canada, to the Queen Mother's 100 ^th birthday, to the middle of war zones in Afghanistan. His work is on display at the National War Museum of Canada.

Everyone who knew Lou saw that he lived life to the fullest and had the ability to make friends with anyone he met. The bright light in our lives has dimmed. He will be forever missed.

Stand easy, your job is done.
