Louis was born March 25, 1926 in Elizabeth to parents Agnes and Louis Mayer, Sr.
Louis graduated from Hillside High School and joined the US Navy just as his father had done in WW1.
He served aboard the USS Tuscon (CL98) during WWII in the South Pacific.
After serving in the Navy Louis worked as a supervisor for the U.S. Postal Service.
Louis married Marion B. Focht on June 11, 1955 and they raised two boys together. He was active in his church, scouting and enjoyed collecting stamps, bowling and fixing things.
After his retirement from the Post Office Louis traveled extensively and was active in the Knights of Columbus as a Third Degree Member.
His quiet supportive demeanor and reliability will be sorely missed.
Louis is survived by his two sons, Peter and his fiancé Kathy, Mark and his
wife Grace and their son Ryan.
A visitation for Louis will be held Sunday, March 8, 2020 from 2:00 PM to 4:00 PM at McCracken Funeral Home, 1500 Morris Ave, Union, NJ 07083.
