I'm so sorry to hear of Lewy Abdo's passing. He taught me about tending bar and waiting tables many years ago at the Heatherdowns Lounge when I just turned 21 and had no experience doing those things. He was a thoughtful and straight talking no nonsense business man, and I always will have fond thoughts of him. My husband and I have run into him in recent years, and he always had a smile and a kind word. Thank you, Lew, and God bless you and your family!
