Chris Lewis, 64, of Maysville, went to be with his Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, on Monday, September 15.
He is survived by his wife, Sherry Langford Lewis, his sons Ryan Lewis (Spring) of Commerce, Zach Lewis (Casey) Lewis of Sylvania, and Ben Lewis of Brookhaven.
His pride and joy were his grandchildren Nate, 8, Rylee, 6, and Harlow, 19 months old, all of Sylvania. Chris also leaves behind three special nieces, Cailyn Cain, Kinsey Langford, Brittany Lewis, and Sydnee Baker. Chris spent a lot of time with them and taught them how to live life out loud. He also leaves behind some special church grandchildren including Cade Vanderburg, Alyssa Prickett, Audrey Simpson, Rayvn Saxon and Riley Saxon.
He is also survived by several siblings including Scott Lewis, Robyn Davidson, Beth Lewis, Charitye Boswell, Jessica Lewis, Jeff King, Kim Rylee, and Scott Rylee.
He was preceded in death by his mother, Doris King of Baldwin, father, Robert Lewis, brother, Tim Lewis, and grandparents Sandy and Lurlene King of Baldwin and Sharp and Stella Lewis of Maysville.
Chris was an avid outdoorsman who loved to fish and hunt. He took several people under his wing and taught them the joy of hunting and fishing and a love for the harvest.
During his career he worked in electrical maintenance for several manufacturing companies before retiring in 2021.
While Chris had many accomplishments, his greatest one was that he is a child of God. Second Corinthians 5:8 tells us that to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord. Chris last attended church at New Life Fellowship.
A memorial service will be held 2 pm Saturday, Sept. 20, 2025 at Ivie Funeral Home Chapel with Rev. Eddie Whiting officiating. The family will receive friends 12 PM until the funeral hour Saturday at the funeral home.
