Lou was a no nonsense person whose common sense was hard to dismiss. If he advised an individual or a company to consider a plan of action it would be their loss not to take it to heart. There is at least one top heavy company who frequently shot them selves in their feet disregarding his counsel.
Another thing I noticed about Lou was if he was somewhat unsure of something he was up front and inquired for better understanding.
If you were close to Lou you could trust that he would protect your back. Just an all around great guy.
Being somewhat familiar I can say one of the words that would describe the Caponi family above all else is "Kind".
After MTH stepped out of two rail early on Lou went out of his way for us by encouraging MTH to get back into two rail production. Which of course they did. Again, Thank you Louie!
