As a youngster going up on the farm there was not very many extras in life. Lewis and his family made life long impressions upon me. They included me in their vacations to Six Flags, Museums and other places I would never have made if it weren't for them. Lewis worked hard and when it came to playing he played hard too. I can remember guns, ammunition, rods and reels and other toys, he would bring in when he came and most all of the times, when he went home he would say, "take care of it until I come back again". He made many a Fourth of July"s special with fireworks, And Christmas's were fantastic. Time will help with some the pain and sorrow. Hold each other close, and spend time together as I know ya'll will. Brother I will miss you dearly and will never forget how big your heart is, wish mine could only be half that size. Love Ya'll always your Brother, Brother-in-Law, and Uncle. DANE
