Flash I know you are from the valley and have a connection with Lou Ghia. I am 64 + now. How old are you ? If you don't mind me asking. How is Louie doing ? I make my trips back home I always go by to see if I see him.

I will be 69 next week. Louie still lives in Arnold, and looks 20 years younger than his age. My Uncle Jack, who is long deceased, was married to Louie's older sister.
