I just heard today of Lewis's passing. I am so sorry. I met Lewis in the early 90's when I became a member of the FBC Broadcast Team. Lewis was my first mentor. I then became acquainted with Virginia when I was enrolled in her Sunday School Class. I thought the world of them both. I have often thought of them from time to time. Such a loss to the community and FBC. Lewis was certainly a wonderful person.

Dear Sweet Virgina, Pat called to tell us about Lewis because she knew how much you meant to our family during the years we were at FBC. What wonderful memories we have of all your family. Those were such good years and we treasure our time with you there. Our love and prayers to all of you, Juanita and Ellis Bush and family.

I first met Lewis when we both worked on the second floor of the Air University building on Maxwell Air Force Base. I knew immediately that I had met a true Southern Gentleman - a great Christian, a wonderful gentleman and a friend. In fact, Lewis made a friend of everyone he met - he was just that kind of person. And he loved his fine wife, Virginia, so much. It just seemed right to always see Virginia with Lewis and see the love of two great people. First Baptist Church has lost a great and faithful member but Heaven is an even greater home with Lewis there. Melvin and Dolores Cooper received
