Dr. Joseph D. Lewis

Dearest Dr. Lewis

My heart aches at the thought that I shall not hear your voice again, share lunch with you at our favorite Friendly's spot, or that never again, will I hear you sing my name in the Xmas Hymnal Jo'el Jo'el.

I am so grateful for your mentorship, friendship, fatherly advice, boyfriend monitoring, husband approval (smile) and the knowledge that you shared with me over the past 31-years.

I remember our first meeting and my first assignment from...

I will never forget you at upper bound, you made me believe in myself and I have the most respect for you. I will graduate with my associates in june, and will going for a BA Your girl, maw-barker and the wonderful turn around in my life. I give the Lord almighty all the glory and for putting such a respectful black man in my life to look back and forward at. You just out ran us. Rest in integrity and in peace
