Larry Lee Lewis, age 87, of Elgin, IL, passed away on November 24, 2024. He was born September 19, 1937 in Harrisburg, IL to his loving parents, McKinley Lewis Jr. and Bobbie Lenel Hopkins-Lewis.
Larry graduated from Riley High School in Southbend, IN. He worked as a gas technician for Northern Illinois Gas for over 20 years before retiring. He and his first wife, Delois, had six children. He and his second wife, Frances (who passed in 1998), also had six children. He later met and married Annie Helen Pace.
Larry was a great and exceptional man! He was very well known and respected by many, yet was very private. He loved and cared for his family, and some of his favorite memories were of his children's, grandchildren's, and great-grandchildren's births.
Larry enjoyed going fishing in his younger years. He had a strong heart for music, and liked collecting antiques and other collectibles. He loved watching movies, and looking up information on his computer.
Larry was preceded in death by his parents; and son, Jeffrey Scott Lewis. He is survived by his wife, Annie Helen Pace-Lewis; children, Larry Lee Lewis Jr, Robert Paul Lewis, Rodney Daval Lewis, André Lemont Lewis, Natalie Yvonne Lewis, Keith Allen Lewis, Larry Maurice Lewis, Bobbi Lorraine Lewis, Edward Mason Lewis, Anthony Raymond Lewis, and Debra LeAnn Lewis; brother, Jeffrey Craig Lewis; 19 grandchildren; 7 great-grandchildren; and a host of other family members and dear friends.
A memorial service will be held from 1:00pm to 3:00pm, Saturday, December 7, 2024 at Living Gospel Church, 1515 Dundee Avenue, Elgin, IL 60120. Pastor Walter Blalark will be officiating.
