->> Not to mention one of the best teachers possible. Louis is one of the coolest, nicest people you'll ever meet, and one of the best sports photographers around.

->> Fu couldn't have found a better teacher than Louis! I know that Louis made me a much better photographer and editor in the ten years I was at the DMN.

If you want a little more background on Fu and how he entered Louis' life, check out the story "A Chance at Joy" from Gusty's CPOY's portfolio a few years back:

And a father's day piece on Louis and Fu from 2006:

->> Beat me to the punch, Andy -- thanks!

Funny thing -- there were at least one or two times that I was subbing on the night photo desk last year, and LD and Fu would be at the same Friday night football game (Lake Highlands HS, both times, I think). Louis takes Fu to games regularly, and usually sends a photo or two of his. Anyway, in these particular cases, I actually emailed Louis to let him know I was going to use one of Fu's photos instead of his ... just thought he might like to know that the boy totally smoked the old man. Ha!!

Anyway, just a funny tidbit. What Andy and Michael said, for sure -- Louis is a good friend, great colleague and amazing person, as well as a wonderful father.

Thanks for passing the link along, Joe.
