POLAND - Louis G. Cerimele, 68, affectionately known as "Sweet Lou," passed away on April 4, 2024.
He was born on September 18, 1955, to Eugene and Nancy (Asta) Cerimele.
Louis was a proud 1973 graduate of Austintown Fitch High School and also attended Youngstown State University. He worked as a laborer and welder for General Motors for 35 years before retiring in the Fab plant with local 1714.
Outside of his professional life, Louis had a passion for umpiring and refereeing and spent 35 years offiatating. His interest and love for athletics was passed down to both his children and grandchildren. However, his greatest joy came from spending time with his family and friends, particularly his grandchildren whom he adored. In his spare time, Lou enjoyed listening to music, sitting on the back deck with his family, eating, laughing and playing cards.

Lou was bigger than life and his smile could light up any room. He will be remembered for the way he could make anyone laugh and his own infectious laugh will never be forgotten.
His favorite pastime was watching his beloved Michigan Wolverines. "GO BLUE!"
