I will remember him always as a dignified man who knew how to express his faith with humor and grace. Lou was very funny and loved to laugh with him - but what I loved most about was that he was an endless well spring of love, kindness and compassion. He was humble, never boastful and my friend. I will visit him often when I see my parents who will be his neighbors again. I will remind him there “Lou, I can be your perpetual dinner guest in heaven! He will feign disappointment, say no, no, there’s not enough tonight, some other night. Dolly will say “oh Lou stop that!” then she’ll insist I stay for dinner. We’ll sit, tell stories, laugh and listen to soft music - like the old days! I miss you already buddy. Sincerely yours Andy Walker
I remember when I was in my early 20s and I had just met Neal. He asked me if I wanted to come over and jam on some guitar so I came right over but I didn't realize that the whole Petti clan was having dinner at the time. I felt like such a dummy for coming so early. But Lou Sr. and Dolly had me come in and have dinner with the family. I was welcomed with loving open arms and made me feel like I was a part of the family. The laughs and the stories were plentiful. I will never forget Lou and Dolly. Together forever in heaven. May they always look upon the people they touched especially the whole Petti family. RIP Lou
I’m so sad to learn of Lou’s passing but so happy to have had the privilege of having him, beautiful Dolly and the Petti family in my life. So many memories, especially of Lou and Dolly, that I will treasure forever. They really were the best. Much love to all.

It is easy to share memories of Lou and Dolly and all the Petti family. But it is hard to pick just one. I know that Lou is now reunited with his love Dolly after all these years and I see that wonderful grin as he dances around heaven with her. The Jewell family is so intertwined it is a special blessing in our lives that no time can erase. Thank you Lou for blessing us with your time, your family and your love. We will all miss you and look for the day we will all be together again.
I was fortunate to know the acquaintances of Lou Sr, Dolly and Michaelina, through Lou Jr. The care and loving nature they showed me was simply humbling. Life is but a flicker of a candle’s flame… ♥️
