Lou Alessi

I was informed today that lou alessi had passed away approx. 2 weeks ago. I am not a family friend or friend of his, so i do not have confirmation.

may he rest in peace

I've looked on other boards and haven't seen confirmation of this.

Over on either Pistolstmithing.com or 1911.com (my browser crashed, and I can't recall which) someone posted yesterday that they talked to him just two days ago.

How about this gets locked until someone confirms the info?

Trebor,
I think that's a good idea.

If anyone receives confirmation, PM a mod and we will reopen and/or merge threads as necessary.

Looks like any stories of Luigi's death are exaggerated: http://forums.1911forum.com/showthread.php?t=221205
