Louis Armistead Heindl, Jr.

HEINDL, Jr., Louis Armistead – It is with heartfelt sadness that we announce that Louis Jr. went to live with the angels and his beloved dogs on Thursday, September 11, 2025. Left to mourn his loss are his devoted parents, Virlinda and Louis Heindl, Sr.; his sisters, Cindy Garrett (Dave) and Carrie Harmon; his fiancé, Robin Mansfield; his nephews, Tyler Garrett (Shelley) and Dale Garrett; his nieces, Meghan and Ashlee Harmon; his great nephews, Peter Garrett and James Armistead Garrett; and his special friends, Wesley and Gerri Dolezal and Tim Dunn. He was a “Handyman Extraordinaire,” and he could do most anything from building a home to barns. He was also very mechanically inclined and could work on everything from mowers to heavy equipment, and even his mud-bog truck. He spent all his life enjoying being on the river, enjoying fishing, crabbing, and spending time on his boat with Robin and his new puppy, Roscoe. Louis grew up in Mechanicsville and graduated from Lee-Davis High School. He was on the swim team at Burkwood Swim and Racquet Club. He played Blue Star football and was the #1 BMX rider in Virginia at 16 years old. He also enjoyed being a member of the  Mechanicsville Mudder’s.

He spent the last ten years on his farm in King William County as a “Gentleman farmer.” He was a Godsend to his parents and family, especially over the last eight years. His memory will be cherished by all who had the pleasure of knowing him, especially his beloved Robin, as they were to be married in October.

The family will receive friends from 3 – 7 pm, on Friday, September 19, 2025, at Monaghan Funeral Home, 7300 Creighton Parkway, Mechanicsville, VA 23111.
