Alan, I am so very sorry to hear about your Dad. I don’t know if you will remember me but I am the daughter of John Hicks & Patty Marcum. We spend a lot of time with your family what seems like years ago. I didn’t know your Mom had passed. Mother always loved Edna & Louie. I am praying for you & your family.
He was a wonderful gentleman who was always so friendly and happy. He has left his mark on Glasgow and all who knew him.
So sorry Louis was always the same when ever you saw him. So friendly.
So sorry for the families loss. Louis was a great friend to all who knew him. I have not seen him since I left Glasgow 16 years ago., but enjoyed knowing him and working for him and Lois at Dairy-0. He will be missed by all.
