Lewis loved spending time with his family at his home in Washago. He enjoyed nothing more than to watch his grandkids and great grandkids swim, fish and enjoy the sun.

You can’t forget the big kids at the fire pit burning everything they can get their hands on while dad is standing in the window… “J.C. Cheryl!…”. He spent many nights by the fire solving the world’s problems. A jack of many trades, including Truck Driver, Marine Mechanic and a run at Honda. His passion was building new structures with the kids, renovating the house (not finishing) and woodworking with his beautiful wife. His self-made handyman skills turned into a renovation business he enjoyed with his loving wife during retirement. Lewis had many uncompleted projects around his house, but there was one thing he did complete, his family.

A Celebration of Life will be held at their family home in Washago. Date to be announced.
