elevated q1YwP Obituary
It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Louis Joseph Longo on December 25, 2024, at the age of 88 years. Predeceased by his beloved wife of 46 years, Sally Anne. Dedicated father of Andrea (Denis), Nancy (Gerry), and Anthony (Jennifer), and proud “Grandpa Louie” to Emily Rose (Jared), Olivia, and Sophia. Cherished brother of Theresa Duncan, Susan Cimicata, Yolanda Russo (Felix), Peter Longo, and the late Dolores Longo. Much-loved brother-in-law of the late Robert Dove (Colleen), Paul Dove, and Bradley Dove (Mary Lou). Lou will be greatly missed by many nieces, nephews, extended family, and friends. Lou enjoyed a long and successful career in the menswear business. He started out at Tip Top Tailors as a young man where he quickly advanced to management. Lou achieved his dream of owning his own store when he purchased Maxwell’s Men’s Shop, where he stayed for over 35 years until his retirement. Lou loved his family and his job. He approached all situations with dignity, kindness, compassion, and generosity. The family would like to express their sincere gratitude to all those who helped to care for Lou in his last days, including the staff at Nurse Next Door Homecare Services, Mountainview Retirement Residence, Georgetown Hospital, and Carpenter Hospice.
