[RE-wrenches] Louis Valenta / interisland Solar

[Keith Cronin]

Talked to Lou before he fell ill last Monday, as he said he was feeling out of sorts. I suggested he head to the doctor and he decided to go to the hospital. I visited him at the hospital on Wednesday and talked shop and about life in general and all of the strides we've all experienced over the years.

Lou was lucid in his thoughts, but the devastating results of the heart attack had him in the ICU on 24 hour watch.

He shared with me that he had hoped to be back to work by December, but knew he needed to get better first.

He was a good guy and was a giver of his time and would share his knowledge with anyone. He taught me alot over the last 14 years and will be missed out here, as he worked for the company for 25 years and was a fixture in the industry in Hawaii for many, many years and was fiercely loyal to anyone that wanted to go solar and share his views with you.

RIP :(
 
Aloha,


Keith

I am sad to report that Louis Valenta of interisland Solar in Hawaii has passed away in the last few days.

Louis had a heart attack about a week ago and this is probably
          related to that.

He was a very good person, friend and also  extremely knowledgeable in our industry.

We will really miss Louis.
