Lou was raised in Meath Park with his 5 siblings. He lived in various places but spent over 40 years of his life living in La Ronge. He raised his four children in La Ronge and was surrounded by many friends and close neighbours.
Lou was incredibly hard working and worked various jobs over his life. Most notably, he retired from Cogema Resources, McClean Lake Mine after many years of dedicated service. On his weeks at home, you could find Lou working at the Town of La Ronge and as a loyal volunteer and dedicated fan at the La Ronge Ice Wolves hockey games.
Lou had a deep love for his family, especially his 10 grandchildren. He was incredibly generous, kind hearted and helpful. He also had a great sense of humour and loved his daily meeting with his buddies on coffee row.

He was also a great-grandpa to Lydia Goudie.
He is also survived by his brother, Pete (Sandy) Gach, whom he shared a deep connection with; and his sisters, Mary Mazurak, Kathy Wickett and Rosie Fekete; as well as numerous nieces, nephews and many dearly loved friends, especially J.P. Proulx and his boys.
