Louie moved to San Francisco, California with his family and graduated from South San Francisco High School in 1956 where he met his wife Beatrice. He graduated from City College of San Francisco on January 31, 1958 with a degree in Criminology. He became a police officer of the County of San Mateo in California in September of 1958.
Louie took a leave of absence from the police force for a summer, to help his parents run a boarding house in Ocean City, MD. During that summer he realized the potential that Ocean City had. This started his career in Ocean City. He built The Sun Tan Motel, The Capri, and the Inn Town all along Baltimore Avenue during the following years. Over the following decades, Louie diversified his interests into shopping centers, condos and single-family homes and his contracting business flourished. He at one point owned and operated a restaurant and a successful used car business. Louie even dabbled in racehorses and had quite a winner in a horse name Powerful Mist. He was ever the consummate entrepreneur. Business was his life.
He is survived by his devoted son, Dino Paglierani, his daughter, Dina Paglierani, his brother, Gary Paglierani of Fresno, CA, and his nephew, Joey Paglierani along with his wife Brittany and their two children, Troy and Grant of Ione, CA. Louie also had many uncles, aunts and cousins along the Eastern Shore through his mother’s family, The Banks of Salisbury, MD
Mr. Paglierani made many younger friends later in his life and could even be considered a mentor to some. Along with them, was a small group of life-long friends including Jac and Pam Stanton who were ever present in the last days of his life.
