Janice, Cristin and family, It was with a heavy heart that I read of Lewis' passing. Although it has been years since we last saw each other, I remember Lewis as one of the kindest and sweetest people I have ever known. The world has lost a great man and heaven has gained a sweet angel, whom I know will be looking down on all of his family and watching over them. At times like this, it is not always easy to find the right words but please know that my thoughts and prayers are with you. Wishing you peace to bring comfort, courage to face the days ahead and loving memories to forever hold in your hearts. God bless.

My sincere condolences to the family of Lewis Hoffman. I worked with Lewis for a number of years at BellSouth. I admired him for his work assignment in Australia, I believe. Also knew his brother Bill from Asheville. My thoughts are with the family. Billy Farris
