I am so sorry to hear of Lewis passing. Sending thoughts and prayers to all.
Lewis was a special friend that spent many years working with the Sanford House Time Out program.
that is a great picture of a Lewis.My condolences to his whole family on his passing. We played together as children and sort of grew up together. Then we joined the Air Force and went through basic training together. Loved that guy.
Prayers for the family!!!!
