David leaves behind a wife Shanna Darlene Lewis; his children, David Brent Lewis (Misty), Tina Lewis Tew (Brian), Brittany Carol Coats, and Brandon Mitchell Coats (Betsy Michelle Coats); step-daughter, Tara Kaitlyn Whitted (Kane); six grandchildren, who were the light of his life, Isaiah, Isabella, Kaiden, Vanna, William and Aiden.; mother, Bonnie Stallans Lewis; sisters, Betty Nelson and Connie Tucker (George); and a sister in law, Ellen Lewis.
He is preceded in death by his father James Alford Lewis and two brothers Bruce Lewis and Jimmy Lewis.
