Louie retired from Albuquerque Public Schools after 41 years of service. He will be remembered for his athleticism in multiple sports. He had an amazing time in the senior slow pitch softball league, a wonderful experience as a senior olympian, and as a pro amateur champion bowler.
He was a light in every room. He never missed an opportunity to dance with his wife to his favorite mariachi music. If you knew Louie, you knew you were always welcome. He was a friend to all who knew him and needed him.
