Uncle Lewis, you will be missed by so many people whose lives you touched in such a wonderfully positive way! Thanks for being my uncle and always beating me in wall-sits when I played college basketball (:-).
I know you are in heaven with Aunt Doris, my Dad Mahlon Lee, and the other Mitchell and Ayers clan and that let's me smile at the celebratory reunion you guys are having!
