  • I did not know you Uncle Louis but My Nana (Florence Lily) did and through her I did she loved you I love you although you are no longer with us I am proud you are part of me I wish with whole heart and soul that my lovely Nana had known you were here in Australia before she died. Her smile when she spoke of you would lighten the saddest of hearts Whilst I live and my children live you and all our "old" people will never die. Forever you will be just in my heart my blood my life go gently Uncle dear and rest
