Ms. Lewis was one of my favorite teachers I remember when she started at Walton High School I had her for English. As years past I had the pleasure of knowing her as a friend and my son also got the privilege of having her as an English teacher. She left a very big mark on a lot of lives I hope she knew that. Rest in peace Jenny.

My favorite memory of Jenny Lou was when she made us write a paper on the obituary section of the newspaper. First thought was, what? Why do we want to write about dead people? However, it was the next statement she said - 'Everyone in the obituary section meant something to someone'. Well, here we are ready HER obituary!!! I haven't seen or talked to her in years but I know one thing, she meant something to me! She made me realize that dead or alive, everyone means something to someone! Thank you Jenny Lewis for teaching and for teaching us that everyone is someone! Rest easy Jenny Lou!
