To the Family off John "Sonny" Lewis: Please know that Sonny will be sorely missed. We mourn and grieve with you. We already missed him standing on the door at church and his constant smile. I remember him leading the church youth athletic program and trying to teach me to hit a softball. I struck out every time; he finally just said go out there and have fun . I remember JJ getting to church one Sunday morning and his tie was jacked up, neither his dad or I knew how to tie it. Sonny stopped him and said " come here man let me help you out". That's what I will always remember about Sonny, his willingness to always be of service.
We love you all,
Gertrude, JJ and Willnette Jackson
