Cale always had a smile on his face. He was a generous person with his time and words. We were college classmates at UNCW and Chi Phi Fraternity Brothers. I always believed we had the best pledge class and fraternity because of brothers like Cale. He Had Heart and was determined and passionate about everything he did. I was fortunate enough to cross paths a couple of years ago, and he looked the same as the day I met him in the fall of 1985. And still had that energy and quick wit. I will always have great memories of college days with Cale. My thoughts and prayers go out to his wife and daughter, And to Cortez & Lee. God Speed My Brother.

What a great guy! A loving man, husband, and father. His love of family was always noticeable. It was a pleasure to work with Cale, Laugh with Cale, and share some pretty crazy car stories. His passion for fast cars, especially Corvettes, spurred many conversations between the two of us. Cale you will always be in my mind, heart, and soul. Will miss you my friend.

Cale will truly be missed at Guest Supply! He had such an infectious personality and incredible drive to take care of his customers, grow his business and support his teammates. His face always lit up when he spoke about his wife Lisa and daughter Emily. It was clear that Cales motivation was to provide a great life for his family. Both of our daughters share a passion for art and I loved seeing how proud he was when speaking of Emily's talent and showing off her great work with me and the rest of the team. It was an honor to work alongside Cale and have him be a part of the Guest Supply family for 24 years. His passion, dedication and loyalty was simply inspirational. Our heartfelt love and deepest condolences go out to Lisa, Emily and Cale's entire family and friends.

So saddened by the news of Cale's passing on Wednesday. My condolences to his wife and daughter, and his entire Family. You are ALL in my thoughts and prayers.

I am very fortunate to have known Cale. Not only was Cale my CHI PHI FRATERNITY Brother, he was also my PLEDGE BROTHER in the RHO "Warriors" PLEDGE CLASS of the GAMMA ZETA CHAPTER of the CHI PHI FRATERNITY at UNC-WILMINGTON. Back in the time when pledging was only for "REAL MEN"!! WRB!! 1824!! Cale "Dent" was a very active BROTHER and like all of us, he would be there for his BROTHER on a moments notice. Cale had your back no matter what. Cale was a "pretty boy" and GOD blessed him with great looks, a great personality, and an infectious smile!! I will miss my CHI PHI Brother, but I know he is in a better place.

RIP "DENT" !!!! WRB !!! 1824 !!! WE LOVE YOU!!

Cale was a team member and friend that I had the pleasure of working with at Guest Supply. I will miss his laughter, working together on projects and having the best conversations. Cale was always was so helpful and supportive. He had so much passion in every aspect of life. He loved his family so much and often times, bragged about his beautiful wife, Lisa and his daughter, Emily who he said was such a talented artist. Home meant so much to Cale. Most importantly, I will miss our friendship through the years. Rest now, my Brother in Gods arms. May God bless the Lewis family and give them strength during this difficult time.
