The Senate recently honored Louis A. Bilotta, a longtime Senate doorkeeper who died Feb. 25.

Bilotta retired several years ago, Senate staff said.

Born in Providence, Bilotta was the husband of Celia (DiNofa) Bilotta and the father of Geraldine A. Bilotta. He owned the Marieville Hardware Store, in North Providence, and served in the Navy during World War II and the Korean War.

As a doorkeeper, Bilotta “showed up every day for work with a smile on his face, proud to serve the public and the members of the Rhode Island Senate,” the Senate resolution passed in his honor said.
