Lou was born in Raven Run, PA and came to Detroit to attend the University of Detroit Dental School. The youngest of 12 children, he is survived by his wife, Elizabeth; children, Donna (Robert Erhard) D’Angelo, Mary Sazy, Theresa (Tom) Drouillard, Elizabeth (Rob) Horton, Barbara (Dan) Goggin and Louis (Suzanne) D’Angelo.
He was a very proud grandpa to Emily, Brad, Erik, Maddie, Nicole, Evie, Katie and Elle.
Lou was a Captain in the Army, avid golfer, an accomplished musician. He also loved to travel, enjoyed his dental practice and rooted for his Detroit Tigers and Lions.
He considered raising six strong, independent kids his greatest accomplishment. He was happiest playing the accordion at family functions and every Christmas with his dearly loved brother, Al.
The family is truly grateful for the care he received from the staff at Vista Timber Ridge and Great Lakes Hospice.
The Funeral Mass will be celebrated at St. Thomas Aquinas Church in East Lansing on Tuesday, Jan. 29 at 11 a.m. Visitation before Mass at 10 a.m.
The family has provided flowers. In lieu of flowers, please make contributions to The Alzheimer's Association, 564 S. Main St., Suite 200, Ann Arbor, MI 48104.
