Happy  Hanukah: Time Flies!

How often have you heard “Time Flies”? Well hard to believe that it has been two years since Lou Ludwig our Motivations Guru, our Friend wrote his last post. He was always there to support everyone with his comments and “his liking of our posts” did not matter if it was a good or mediocre post, he was there for us 100% of the time.

Loved reading his Motivational Posts and I still miss him on this platform. Lou was one of a kind. Someone who was caring and there when you needed him. Even when you did not need him, he was still there for you.

I can still clearly recall his last post, I was one of the first to comment on it and there was no response, nor reciprocity. I knew there was something wrong…. Then I checked back and one of our Active Rain friends posted a comment about Lou’s Passing. First, I could not believe it, denial took place, then finally acceptance and then recognition how appropriate his last post was. Truly an amazing person and a great representative of what Active Rain was  and is all about.

Lou you are in my heart and think of you often, hope you are smiling as you read this post. Glad I got to know you on this platform. On a side note who would have guessed I am below you on the Leaderboard! I almost do not want to pass you out of respect!

For those who are not familiar or did not know Lou here is his last post check it out. For those who knew and loved him just a gentle reminder “time flies” make every minute count, Lou would have wanted you to!

What a wonderful tribute, Endre! Lou was certainly a very special member of the community and sadly missed. I still enjoy reading his wisdom, and no doubt many others do as well.

Endre Barath, Jr. Like Kathy Streib I had the good fortune to know Lou.  I took several of his classes at the Realtors Board in the Palm Beaches.  He was a gentleman and truly enjoyed helping people succeed.   There were times I called him for advice; he would drop whatever he was doing to stop and talk.  If he was teaching, he always called back.  It's hard to believe it's been two years.

 

Happy Holidays everyone!  Each day is a gift.

Endre,  Thanks for posting this - time does fly.  I need to be more active so I know what is going on.  Lou was amazing and I loved having him around!  I feel like I must have been hiding under a rock this year.  I'm moving on to read his last post now.
