quintessential Lou

Oh dear...I have no photos of me and Lou. These are all so wonderful, though. I didn't really get to know Lou until after I left NMAI and he came on two of his habitual visits to the UK to see Renata (and to visit his neice, then at university). The irascible, cranky, sarkky (you Brits know what this means!) Lou that I knew from work days was transformed into a generous, funny and wry witty guy who entertained, amused and touched me. I'm so glad that I got to see this side of Lou and can't believe I won't be raising any more glasses of wine with him - all the restaurant photos of him are quintessential Lou to me...here's lookin' at you, Lou.
