Louis J. Puza – “Great hunter. Yes? Yes. Fine figure of a man. Yes? Yes. Good. That is all you need to know. For now.” Jeremiah Johnson
Westfield – Born to Louise (Taudel) and Walter Puza. Son, grandson, brother, nephew, cousin, godfather, dog lover. Uncle Tuff to many both those related and not. Teammate, coworker, the ultimate neighbor. Husband, father, son in-law, brother in-law, father in-law and friend to all. Louis was generous, kind, humorous, hardworking, humble, legendary and above all else a simple man.
He made so many feel so good with his kind and compassionate words and his amazing hugs. His absence will leave a huge void for his friends and family. They will forever honor his memory in their hearts. He leaves to cherish him forever his wife Charlyn and their children Henry and his wife Sarah, Anna and Ernie; a sister Louise (Toni), the children of his brother Skip each of whom he loved as his own; his in-laws the Richard Curran Family and countless aunts, uncles, cousins and beloved friends.
Louis loved freely and fiercely. His ashes will be spread in a place he regarded as his “heaven on earth.” His spirit will continue in the lives that he touched and in the stories that he told. LJP you were loved far more than you ever knew.
Contributions in his memory may be made to the Holyoke Beagle Club in care of Jack Moynihan; 203 Southampton Road; Westhampton, MA 01027. Calling hours will be at the Firtion Adams Funeral Home in Westfield on Sunday, January 15th from 2:00 pm until 5:00 pm with a eulogy to follow. The family asks that you honor his memory by loving each other and being kind. He always said “Everyone is different” and he truly lived his simple philosophy in his humble acceptance of everyone.
