My Dearest Lew
Words can’t express how I feel, there will always be a special place in my heart for you. I had trees planted for you and you will be able to watch them grow.

You will be missed and gone too soon. All the birthdays and holidays at our home. You always liked my cooking. Rest in peace Uncle Lew!

You will be missed, Lew.

I have known Lew for about 30 years. We were Park Rangers together at Shendndoah National Park in the 1990's. He was a great guy. I made my first ever cellular phone call to Lew! We were both in our patrol vehicles parked at different overlooks and we talked on our "car phones" which weighed about 5 pounds each!

I am so sorry to hear of Lew´s passing. I graduated with Lew from BV in 1964. He was my escort at homecoming in 1963. I remember being at his family home with a few other classmates. Good memories! He was a handsome, nice guy. It´s sad to see that our classmates are leaving us. I would be going to the funeral home except for the fact I´m vacationing in Tucson, AZ. RIP, Lew!
