I was sad to hear about Luis’ passing. Although it has been 50 years, I remember him from our Law School days at Seton Hall. He was a wonderful person and will be missed. May memories bring comfort to the family. Nathanya Simon, Class of 1975

Adios Amigo Mio!
Luis, "Lou", was the Best Man for our wedding...and He was the "Best Man" for all of us Setonians, particularly the Prep Class of 1968. My God with Father Manning now welcome Luis into the Heavenly Kingdom...and Amigo Mio, until we meet again, May God hold you Luis in the Bosom of His Sacred Heart!

I worked for Luis for over 30 years and can truly say he was one of the best people I ever met. He was an exceptional mentor, a brilliant attorney whose ethical compass was always true, and a deeply devoted family man. His clients always received the best legal advice, a testament to his belief in service over profit. Despite his wise-cracking ways, his integrity and kindness shone through in everything he did. May his memory be a blessing to all who were fortunate enough to know him.

A truly faithful and decent man. He understood Christian teaching and applied it in real life. I will miss his humor and wise cracks.
Rest in peace my friend.

Lou's contagious smile was his calling card. I'll remember him as a good friend who always looked at the bright side of things. That attitude served him well as he bravely fought his illness. Our loss is heaven's gain. Rest in Peace, my friend.

In my younger years, I had the privilege of meeting and knowing Lou when his family lived up the street from us in South Orange. Lou was indeed a kind and gentle soul. This is a great loss to so many.

I think I still owe him like 20 bucks for never buckling my seatbelt. Seeing him always brought an instant smile to my face. For a father of 8 he somehow was still able to be a father figure to many more. Thanks for everything Mr, Sanchez!

A good man indeed, I knew him a relatively short time but immediately was attracted to Lou as a friend that God gifts to me as I journey through life. Thank you, Lord.
It was special that he and I shared being Seton Hall Prep Alumni and being sons of Elizabeth- Lou having a long legal career in Elizabeth and for me, being proudly born and raised in the city.
He truly ran the race of earthly life faithfully and was fully prepared for the next, final and majestic step- entrance and acceptance into the eternal life Our Lord has prepared for us.
He will be missed but we rejoice in his exemplary life and where he now spiritually and joyfully resides for eternity.
Alleluia!!!

There are a few people who come into your life and who leave lasting imprint upon you. Luis was one of those people. Those of us who knew him from Seton Hall were lucky enough to share 4 years with a truly great person. I will always hold the memories of Luis close to my heart. Thank you for sharing a part of your life with m.

Luis- the ultimate, complete gentleman dedicated to his family and strong Catholic faith. Always a kind word for others who set an example to follow. Honored to call him friend who was loved by all who had the privilege to know him. He is with the Lord. Love. Peace. Amen

Met Luis freshman year at SHP and became fast friends. I had many opportunities to spend days (and nights) with the family and to experience the love that permeated in the Sanchez Family.
We know Luis has been welcomed into Heaven by our Lord and greeted by his father, mother and brother, Bill. Peace by with you my friend!
