Lou Ann Lemmo

Lou Ann L. Lemmo, 56, passed away Wednesday, July 16, 2014 surrounded by her loving family.

Lou Ann was born December 6, 1957 in Des Moines to Frank and Lila Lacona. She was gifted with magical hands that she used to create. Lou Ann was notorious for her cooking, especially her guantis which she began making with her sister Patty at Funaro’s Bakery. She could make anything grow, from the flowers on the porch at Scala to her vegetable gardens. Absolutely everything & anything Lou Ann touched flourished, including hearts.

To know Lou Ann was to love her. She will be remembered by many as a caring, kind hearted, patient, loving, and passionate lady. Lou Ann was the “rock” of the family, her doors and arms were always open.

Lou Ann is survived by her soul mate and loving husband of 38 years, Tony; son, Tony Lemmo; daughter, Katie Lemmo; mother, Lila Lacona; siblings, Teresa Johnston, Frank Lacona and Linda Lacona; and a host of extended family and beloved friends.
