Life Story of Clarence Odell Lewis Jr. "Peanut"
Clarence Odell Lewis Jr. (lovingly known as Peanut) was born on June 24, 1965 in Charlottesville, VA to Clarence Lewis Sr. and Caroyln Lewis. Clarence attended Fluvanna High School where he excelled in sports as running back for the football team and leading sprinter in Track and Field (earning three district, regional, and state championships). Clarence graduated from Fluvanna High School in 1985 and went on to work as a lead installer of office furniture and work stations all throughout the state of Virginia. He joined Columbia Baptist Church at an early age and is preceded in death by his maternal and paternal grandparents and father, Clarence Odell Lewis Sr.
Clarence leaves to cherish fond memories his mother, Carolyn Lewis of Fork Union, VA; two brothers, Gary Lewis Sr. and Jerome Lewis of Fork Union, VA; one sister, Felicia Ross of Jarratt, VA; and his beloved goddaughter, Davida Creasy of Fork Union, VA; three aunts, Alberta Lewis and Gertrude Jones of New Jersey and Julia Lewis of Fork Union, VA; five uncles, Jack Lewis Sr. of Fork Union, VA, Roslyn Jackson, Russell Jackson and Linwood Jackson of Richmond VA, and Earl Nicholas of Fluvanna, VA along with a host of nieces, nephews, cousins, friends, and best friends Daryl and Dwayne Creasy.
To the Lewis family, we at D. D. Watson offer our most sincere sympathy and condolences. Our prayer continues to be that your abiding faith in God will lend to you a measure of comfort that will strengthen and sustain you during your time of sorrow.
It is during such times as these that we draw upon our faith, stand upon our scriptures and rely upon our God. There is no question that in this and through this, God will keep you, comfort you and sustain you. You and your family are forever in our prayers.

I so much enjoyed being on the track team with Peanut, a great athlete as well as a great person. I had the privilege of passing the baton to him in the 880 relay during the 1983 track season. To his family and those who were close to him I offer my condolences.

GET UR REST PEANUT FLY HIGH MY SINCEREST CONDOLENCES TO UR MOM "CAROLYN" AND THE LEWIS FAMILY.
