Dear Mary Jane. & family, Remembering the good times as a teen visiting during summer
vacation and we would go to Lake Charlotte with your friends, including Lew! Always friendly, outgoing to help or teach. He was a true gentleman!
May our Lord, Jesus Christ, wrap his arms around you all and comfort you in these
difficult days. RIP, Lew.

Lou, I never thought when I went with the guys to visit you and MaryJane that it would be the last time I would be in your company laughing about the good old days. Losing Herky, Potter,Jimmy and you took a lot of heart out of the Madison alumni. MaryJane was the best nurse in the world for you and your family showed the love from the many years you shared with them. Rest in peace my brother. Our prayers will always be with you..
