Lou was happily married to his wife Maria Cimilluca Morelli for 69 years. Together they raised a wonderful son and two daughters: Louis Charles Morelli M.

The Van Poznak family includes son-in-law Ted Van Poznak and his children Marisa Van Poznak M. D, Theodore J. Van Poznak, Alexander Van Poznak, and Katherine Van Poznak.

These children and their legacy are Lou and Maria’s pride and joy. Louis J. Morelli worked throughout his long life as a civil engineer with a treasured P. E. credential. He was devoted to his work and to the quality of outcomes, a consistent and real perfectionist. Lou worked for many years at American Machine and Foundry (AMF) in Stamford, CT. He also worked at SMS Concast, headquartered in Pittsburgh. Lou kept and cherished the friendships from his long career. We remember Lou always for his agreeable nature, kindness, patience, love of family, and good humor. Lou could appreciate and tell a joke better than the rest.
