He was known as the "Dean of the Assembly" for his 20 years in the California State Assembly.[1][2] Early lifeThe son of Greek immigrants, was named Elias Papandricopoulos ({{lang-el|Ηλίας Παναδρικόπουλος}}) but the doctor did not know how to spell Elias and thus he was named Luis Papan. Lou Papan spoke only Greek when he began elementary school.[1] He served as a Sergeant in the U.S. Army during World War II and a First Lieutenant in the U.S. Air Force during the Korean War.[3] He received his BA in Economics in 1951 from Syracuse University in New York.[3][4] After graduating from Syracuse, Papan was a Special Agent in the FBI in San Francisco and Chicago.[3] He became a real estate broker and general insurance agent in 1958 and co-founded the Peninsula Bank of Commerce in 1981.[3] Public officeIn 1970, he was elected to the Daly City Council.[4] He was first elected to the California State Assembly in 1972, where he served until 1986.[3] Papan served as Speaker Pro Tempore from 1974 to 1976, and chaired the powerful Assembly Rules Committee from 1976 to 1986.[3] Instead of seeking reelection to an eighth term in the Assembly in 1986, Papan ran for the 8th State Senate District seat but was defeated by independent candidate Quentin L. Kopp. After leaving office in 1986, Papan was succeeded by Jackie Speier and did not return to the Assembly until 1996 when Speier vacated the seat. Papan was re-elected in 1998 and 2000 with over 70% of the vote in his district.[5][6][7] Papan was the Chair of the Assembly Banking and Finance Committee.[3] In 2006, Papan again ran for the State Senate in the 8th District - but came in third place in the Democratic primary, losing to Leland Yee. FamilyPapan's wife of 42 years, Irene, died in 2000.[4] They had two daughters Virginia and Diane. Virginia formerly worked as a Deputy Attorney General and now is the Deputy Director of the California Office of Criminal Justice Planning. Diane practices law in San Francisco.[3] Papan was nicknamed "Leadfoot Lou" for his fast commutes between Sacramento and his Peninsula home, trips that brought him a good share of speeding tickets. Few people knew he raced home to be with his son John, who suffered from a rare congenital condition that eventually ended his life at age 21 in 1981.[1][2] The family set up John's Closet—an organization that provides new clothes for needy children. Papan was well known as an advocate for disabled children.[3] Memorial tributes
