Nancy,
I am so sorry to hear of Lew's death.
He was a true gentleman. Always so very nice to his co-workers at Marion Power Shovel in the Payroll Department.
I enjoyed watching him perform in the plays at the Palace.
I am so glad we all had our visit last year in Marion.
God bless you and keep you strong through this difficult time.

Nancy, I'm so sorry to hear about Lew. He was a good friend of mine and a fine work colleague. We remember fondly your visit to Upper Sandusky last summer. You'll see Lew again.
