I send the family my deepest condolences and prayers. Mama Lou was the sweetest women you will ever meet and I’ll never forget how caring and heartfelt she was. She had the power to make everyone feel welcome and treated everyone as if they were her own. I’m grateful for her sweetness and I pray for her to finally rest easy. Thank you for everything Ma Ma Lou. We will miss you.

There are no words to describe how much of an impact you've had on my life. We all love you so much, Auntie, and I pray that in your heavenly home, you know how thankful I am for the memories, advice, and comfort you gave me through the years.
Growing up, seeing you, Uncle, Matt, and Kenzie always felt like Christmas morning. Your home was always a source of something to look forward to for Kuya, Jess, and myself. It was my favorite place and I can distinctly remember your infectious laughter and the smells and sounds of the wonderful memories we all shared. I am so grateful you got to meet Ariel and I just wish we had more time. I'll miss you always.
Love,
Mon

Auntie Lou was one of those rare people who could always light up a room and make every person she met feel welcomed and safe. It's still hard to come to terms with her passing and I wish nothing but strength and love for Auntie Lou's family. Even though she is not here physically, her love for her family was so strong it'll be felt for years to come.
Auntie Lou, thank you for being such an amazing soul. I am honored to have known such an amazing woman. I will cherish the memories we have together and will miss you very much. I know my dad and Auntie Lou are catching up with all their missed loved ones and are smiling down on us. We love you Uncle Mark, Matthew, and Mackenzie.
Sending lots of hugs, love, and prayers. Rest in peace and love, Auntie Lou.

Mrs. Lou Thomas was the sweetest swim mom ever. She was a devoted swim mom and always made sure the swimmers made it to their warm ups and races. The Thomas family always hosted parties/sleepovers at their house and she was always prepared to feed and entertain everyone. She treats her friends like her family and I am grateful for having such a sweet and kind hearted person in my life. Thanks for everything, Mrs. Thomas. My heart goes out to her family.
Love,
Austen

Ate Lulu as we called her was more than a cousin to me. She was almost an elder sister, playmate and friend. We grew up together in the Campana Family compound. We have shared a lot of childhood memories that are forever in my heart.
After so many years we didn't see each other because we both left the Philippines. Despite our thousand miles of distance, we were still in touch. And luckily, last year, we both decided to take a vacation in the Philippines, that was a get together to cherish forever.
I know Ate Lulu is in better place and watching over her loved ones. She will be missed and I was so grateful that I had a cousin like her.

To me, Auntie Lhou is Auntie.
She was many things to everyone.
A kind daughter,
A supportive sibling,
A loving wife,
A caring mother,
A mother of cats (and dogs),
A rock to her family and friends,
and most importantly,
Loved.
I'll always keep my memories of you close and be thankful for the times we spent together. I miss you. I hope we'll meet again in our next life.

I'm so sad that Lou is not with us anymore. It's beyond sad that my heart hurts when I think of her.
I will always cherish sweet happy memories with Lou. She has a way of making things look brighter. I will miss our hours long talk. Most certainly, No one can compare.
My sincere sympathy to you Mark, Matt and Kenzie. Know that you are in my thoughts and prayers.

RIP Auntie Lou
She loved so much, she was so much fun. You always felt like you could talk to her and never felt like she judged you. She would ask me when I was getting married and would have a family, it was the sweetest thing anyone’s ever asked me. I guess she saw that in me which I didn’t see in myself, she made me see deeper than I chose to see and in the most loving supportive way. You never felt inadequate or insecure around her because she never felt either of those things herself. She was so young at heart my whole life, effervescent whenever I saw her. I was looking forward to catching up about the trip she just took with the fam to Europe. It looked epic.
She might’ve been the only one to not be blacklisted by Auntie Lorie.. I never imagined our last conversation would be the last. She never had a bad word to say, she never had bad energy to give. She never made you feel bad even though you felt guilt, I’ve overheard a few conversations in my day. She always asked how I was doing, but no like really, how I was really doing. The way she listened to people and engaged you in conversation, I always made sure my phone wasn’t in hand to give the same love and attention back. She really looked in your soul and made sure you were ok because she wanted to know. She would listen intentionally and in her mom way ask questions that would prove to be more revelatory than the conversation would have hinted at. She was the most positive person in the room. She didn’t GAF and she flowed right in.
I will carry a bit of your grace and silliness with me always and will always remember you as loving, no nonsense, vibrant and caring. Caring sounds so basic but from her so meaningful. Love you Auntie.
My condolences. Sending light and love. I see her in the ones she loved most and that’s a testament to her love, how much she loved you Uncle Mark, Matthew and Mackenzie.

Mrs. Thomas was the kindest soul and spirit I had the honor of knowing when swimming with Matthew and Mackenzie. She was the ultimate swim mom who treated every child as her own. Her loving spirit filled each and every room she entered and her smile instantly placed a smile on others' faces. She was such a light in my life and had a huge impact growing up in the swimming world. I want to thank her for the unwavering support and kindness she expressed and hope to continue to shine a light on others just as much as she was able to do so. She will be greatly missed by so many and her family should be so proud of the legacy she has left behind. I wish she and her family peace during this time and will always remember the brightest moments when thinking of Mrs. Thomas.

She was the sweetest swim team mom I ever met, her kindness and compassion was unmatched. She made my younger years and confusing times tolerable, and Became a friend and companion to my mother, who often watched us from the sidelines. Thank you for the smiles and laughter you brought to myself and others.

Dear Mark, Matthew, and Mackenzie,
I’m so very sorry for the loss of your wife and Mother. Llhou was an extraordinary woman…..sweet, kind, and always something positive to say. We loved being your neighbors in Hollister, even though it was for such a short time. Llhou always had a hug for our daughter, “Miss” Emma. I know she is in a heavenly place, but my heart goes out to you as you go on without her physical presence. She will watch over you always.

I am at a loss for words seeing this. Ms. Lou was such a kind, caring, guiding light when we started at Spring Grove. She was the epitome of positive energy in everything she did. She loved her family with everything she was and had. We are so sorry for your loss.

I am still at a loss with the passing of Lou. Mark, Matthew and MacKenzie- your mom/wife was an amazing person and we are all lucky to have called her a friend. I shared your mom's passing with Grant and we were reminded of how much time he spent at your home from Kindergarten to 6th grade. I think he even had a drawer in the bathroom. She is at peace and sharing her love with those in heaven. I am so sorry that she was taken so young. God must have needed her. Prayers to all of you! The Bernosky Family.
