Graham and I have had an email from Lou's niece. It is with the heaviest hearts that we advise that Lou passed away this morning, 17th August, at 3.30 am. He had been holidaying for a few days with his mum and
became ill. He was admitted to hospital but passed away peacefully. His niece says that he wanted to see the sea one more time, feel the sea breeze and the sun, and listen to the waves and seagulls. This he did.
We saw him just before leaving England in June. I think he knew he didn't have long. Lou knew his fans loved him and we reinforced this each time we saw him.
I'm so sorry to be the bearer of such bad news.
Bless you Lou, rest in peace.
Jennfer.
