To the Lewis family I extend my deepest sympathy & condolence. We were childhood, neighborhood, high school & college friends, as well as, farternity brothers. While I did not keep in contact over the years, Earl's memory will always be a part of me. He represents the best in what a man should strive to be, that is being true to his family, his roots and the principals engrained in his spirit.

Bro. Earl was a true Omega man. He always participated in the fraternity's programs and was a very active member of the chapter's social action outreach programs. I had the honor and privilege of doing volunteer work with him at the Langston Hughes after -school program. My prayers to the family.
