I know nothing anyone can say or do will make the pain in your heart heal but I wanted you to know that there are lots of people out there praying for you and your family.

I just heard the news of Lew's Passing. I am very saddened to hear this news, I worked for PHHBM 2001-2005 and it was always a joy to see Lew come into the Office he was always cheerful and had a lot of stories to tell. You will be missed. Rest in peace.

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

Holt and family, Gwen and I were saddened to learn of your father's passing. We have very fond memories of your father each year at The Heritage on HHI. Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this most difficult time.

I was deeply saddened when I got the phone call earlier this week that Lew had passed away.

One of the nicest things about my employment as the receptionist at Parham, Helms & Kellam (1986-1990) was knowing "The Father".

Lew was simply an amazing man who spoke plainly so you always knew right where you stood with him - and if he was your friend, you had a friend for life.

And, oh! The stories he could tell!

I hope that the entire Parham family can find a little comfort during this saddest of times in the fact that so many people admired Lew. He was truly one of a kind and he will be greatly missed.

I wish to extend my condolences to the family of Lewis Parham for their heart-felt loss. As we mourn his passing from this world, we will miss him as we cherish the memories of the life he shared with us. To console each of us in this time of sorrow, we know he is moving to a grander place in the Kingdom of Heaven.

I will always remember him as “Lewie Parham,” one of my childhood buddies at Wiley School. When we were eight and nine, Lewie, Jimmy Blake (now deceased) , and myself would go to Lewie's home at the corner of Saint Mary's Street and West Jones Street in Raleigh after school to play cowboys before we headed home for the day. Then there were the cowboy movies every Friday and Saturday at the old Capital Theatre on West Martin Street – ten cents for the movie, a nickel for box of popcorn. A delightful life for young boys who dreamed of growing up one day to perhaps become one of those cowboys.

God Bless You and Comfort You in your time of Sorrow.

Lew has been a friend for thirty plus years. I have many fond memories of "the father" from playing golf or just sitting in the steam room at MPCC.
He will truly be missed by all of us that knew and loved him.

Heartfelt sympathy and prayers of comfort to the Parham family and friends. Lew was a mentor, advisor, and friend starting back in my early years at Synco. He was honest with a great sense of humor and caring heart. Thank you Lew for all you have done for me and my family.

May your family be comforted with
the warm love from family and friends,
with legacy of wisdom and kind words
left in your keep and with the
wonderful memories you shared with
Lewis. May these memories help to
comfort your hearts and cushion
your grief
