Ida Lewis Obituary
Our beloved mother, grandmother and great-grandmother went home to be with our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ on May 28, 2016.
Ida was born in Murray, Utah February 26, 1927 to Dominic and Lena Ferro. She was married to the love of her life, Harris, on August 10, 1946. They were happily married 55 wonderful years. Harris went ahead to help prepare their eternal mansion in 2002. Ida's primary concern was always her family. She was a devoted wife and mother, who always put her family first. She was an avid homemaker who loved to cook and always had the ability to put together a great Italian dinner when unexpected guests would arrive. Ida always enjoyed the great outdoors with our family and relished the times with those who would come long distances to enjoy the things she so loved. She was always ready to go fishing at Strawberry Reservoir, camping at various areas throughout Utah and always was excited to go deer hunting and be with her family from near and far, in the area around Soldier Summit near Strawberry.
She is survived by Son David (Gail), Daughters Linda Darcy, Judy (Al) Allgood, Brother Joe (June) Ferro, nine grandchildren and 20 great-grandchildren.
The family is very grateful to Legacy House Assisted living for their phenomenal staff and accommodations they contributed to Ida's comfort over the past year. We also wish to thank the wonderful people of Aspire Hospice for their compassionate, loving care provided to Mom in her last days.
A celebration of Ida's life will be held Thursday, June 2, 2016 at 11:00 AM at Larkin Sunset Gardens Mortuary Chapel 1950 E. (10600 S.) Sandy. Friends may call Wednesday from 6-8 PM and Thursday one hour prior to service. Interment to follow at Larkin Sunset Garden cemetery. In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations be made to Legacy House of South Jordan or Aspire Hospice in Ida's name.

To Ida's Family:
It was a gift from the Lord for me to know Ida the last few years. We attended the same church, New Creation, and I so enjoyed going to see her and visit with her.
I so appreciated her smile. It was always there, even on the tough days. I cherish her friendship and look forward to seeing her again. She is in our future. Thank you, Lord!
God bless you all, Sally Beesley

Linda!
I am so sad to hear of your sweet Mother's passing. I grew to love her and I so looked forward to seeing her around the Greenwood Center. She was truly one of my favorite patients. I will treasure my memories of her. May all your fond memories comfort you today and in the days to come. Love you Linda,

Dear David & family,
Sorry to read about the loss of your Mother.
You and your family take me back to when we

Thank you and your family for being my friend.
Both your Mother and Father have done a great job with their family.
