RIP Spc. Louis G. Kim

March 8, 1987 - February 20, 2007

Today it is a year since Louis passed. We still miss him and love him very much. All we can do now is remember and cherish his memory. Just rejoice in the way he used to make us laugh and how he used to make us cry because of the laughing haha! I'll always remember him for his crazy antics, fresh personality, and overall kindness and warmth. He was the one who introduced us to a ton of really cool bands that we never bothered to check out, like Mae. We actually first met Louis through Matt because they were in the drumline together at Los Altos High School. They became good friends and he just started coming by to our house almost everyday after school. He'd eat our food and instead of calling our mom "Mrs. Apostol", he would call her "mom" too. She took it the hardest when we first heard news of his death. It didn't hit me or Matt until we actually saw his body laying in the casket. It's one of those feelings where you can't help but explode into tears and immediately feel lost and overwhelmed with sadness.

He voluntarily chose to go to war for this country, and ended up giving his life and paying the ultimate price. He was one of the most giving and unselfish people I knew when he was in our lives and I still miss the way he would drop in and hang out with us.

We miss you.


Everything that Matt and I do in this life, we dedicate to Louis. We know he would've been there for us through thick and thin so we're going to live our lives to their fullest in his honor.

Cherish the ones you love and care about.
When it's all said and done, they're the only ones that matter.

- Vince
