Louis was born July 27, 1945 in Buenos Aires, Argentina to Sam and Maria Medvedeff. He came to New York City in 1964 and settled in Florida with his family in 1973. He was a certified "GIA" Gemologist and had a passion for his work as a jeweler. He was a manager for Zale's Jewelers and eventually opened "The Queen's Jewelers" in Fort Pierce and Stuart in 1976. After he closed his jewelry store, he moved to Vermont and then South Carolina before returning to Florida in 1998. After his retirement he worked part time for Ward Pest Control Services. He was affectionately known for his sense of humor and compassion for all people. He was quick witted and extremely knowledgeable. He was a problem solver and was quick to answer the final Jeopardy question every night. He loved spending time with his family, especially his grandchildren. His hobbies included fishing, cooking and caring for "Zeus" his dog whom he called his domestic partner.
