I am so sorry for the loss of Louis. My grandparents (Jerry and Lucy Severo) lived right next door to Louis and he was always a favorite of mine, even as a little girl. May your memories of the years with him comfort you moving forward.
My heartfelt condolences to the entire Longo clan, especially to Janice and Ken. I worked with Lou in the 80s and we stayed in touch all this time. He was an original. Lou loved his family above all else. He had a positive attitude and wonderful sense of humor. I always felt happier after chatting with him. He will be truly missed.
Janice and Kenny

So sorry for your loss. The last few years I made a point
of seeing your Dad at his house when I was in Woburn we
had fun talking about the old neighborhood. He was a Great
guy and will be missed !
How lucky we were to have Lou a part of our family for so many years. I celebrate his life. A man who was blessed and a blessing to those who knew him.
One of best persons I will ever know. He was not only a business relationship but a friend. We talk about our children and went to lunch a bunch of times… I love you and I will miss you! Guess no more Christmas cards. Rest in Peace.
