Today we received the very sad news that Louie Sibley has passed away while undergoing heart surgery.
I first met Louie at least 10 years ago when he came into the office to show me his book. At that time, he was working with MAC Cosmetics, and was looking to branch out by assisting our artists on the fashion shows. I can still remember Louie entering the office wearing his hat and a big smile. He was immediately hired and worked regularly with Scott Andrew, Dick Page and a number of our make up artists. I received the pleasure of working with a great guy for years to come.
Louie will be remembered for his friendliness, his laughter and his extraordinary knack to always make himself available for me in a crunch! He will be greatly missed. Our sincerest sympathy goes out to his family and dear friends.
- Kellie O’Bosky-Haas and the entire staff of Jed Root Inc.
Memorial services are to be held on Saturday, April 25th, 1:00PM-4:00PM at:
Greenwich Village Funeral Home
199 Bleecker Street
New York, NY 10012
Louie was my adopted nephew. I still remember the happy smiles he always had as a small boy. I'll be traveling with his father to New York to attend his 'celebration of life,' see his family and meet his friends.
God Bless His Soul and may he Rest in Peace.
