Man's remains turned over to Coroner
The remains of Shreveporter Louis Moossy have been turned over to the Caddo Coroner's Office until they can be claimed by a family attorney, said Caddo Sheriff's Detective Michael Escude'.
Moossy's cremains were received by the Caddo Sheriff's Office about two weeks ago from a man who found them in the trunk of car that was going to be sold for scrap. The car previously belonged to Moossy.
Escude' began a search for Moossy's next of kin and found a daughter who was incarcerated in Baton Rouge, but she provided no additional details on next of kin. The investigation then led to a brother of Moossy's in West Virginia. Escude' said that the brother has since contacted a Dallas attorney, who is making arrangements to claim Moossy's remains.
After Moossy's story was publicized by local media this past week, the Sheriff's Office received several calls from people who remembered Moossy as a highly regarded Shreveport architect. Escude' said several people offered to help provide a proper resting place for Moossy. It was also learned that Moossy had a burial plot next to his deceased wife in St. Joseph's Cemetery.*
