New Baby Makes Four

Congratulations to my friend Lou Tisler, on the birth of his second child, Addison Marie, who's already been nicknamed Addie. He and Jackie are no doubt bursting with pride. Two years ago, we brought you word of the couple's inital foray into parenthood. As you can see, their oldest, Alexis, has blossomed into a beautiful two-year-old. In those two years, Lou has also done some blossoming of his own. Along with Cuyahoga County Treasurer Jim Rokakis (whom we've mentioned here and here), Lou has become one of the two or three most prominent advocates in this region on the explosive issue of house foreclosures. As executive director of Neighborhood Housing Services of Greater Cleveland, he's been providing testimony to Congress and quotable insights to the national media at a furious pace. His heroic contributions, in other words, haven't been confined solely to his family life. Keep up the good work in both realms, Sweet Lou.
