Lawrence Lewis Obituary
Larry died unexpectedly Tuesday, December 17, 2019 at his home. He was born January 3, 1954 in Easton, PA to the late David and Jane (Hunt) Lewis. He had worked as a driver for Matesich Distributing for 40 years. Though Larry was born in Pennsylvania he grew up in the Boston area which fostered a love for New England sports teams including the Patriots, Red Sox and Celtics. Larry was very active, he enjoyed the outdoors; golfing, walking and he had quite a green thumb.
Survivors include his son, Darren (Stacy) Lewis of Pataskala; a daughter, Monica Lewis of Newark; sisters, Ruthanne (Paul) Turcotte and Sara Jane Lewis; grandchildren, Chloe Lewis, Miles Steele and Kodie Steele; and his loving companion, Cinda Harris.

I had only known Larry for a couple years but already considered him a friend. His love for his family was obvious from our very first conversation. I will miss talking with him. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.

Larry was a friend of mine.
We golfed together, and he always spoke highly of his kids.
Larry was also one to laugh and enjoy life .
I met him through Matesich Distributing when he became my driver in 1993. Larry worked with me for 19 years.
I will always have good memories of my friend
