Just seeing this, Susan. I am so sorry for your loss. He sounds like a fine man. Sharing fifty years of love and life experience is a long time, so the void must feel enormous to you and your daughter. I send you both love and wishes for eventual peace and healing.

Mrs. Black,

I am very sorry for your loss.

Susan, my heart was hurt when I heard about Lou passing away. I am so very sorry and please know I'm thinking about you and Leigh Elizabeth during this time.

We wanted to extend our condolences to the Black family after Lou's passing. We have appreciated Judge Black's service and really enjoyed their company at judicial conferences. May God Bless.

SUSAN, I AM SO SORRY TO HEAR OF THE PASSING OF YOUR BELOVED HUSBAND. MY THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS TO YOU AND YOUR FAMILY.

Please accept my sincere condolences. Lou touched a lot of lives. He will be missed. My prayers to the family.
