Lewis enjoyed spending time admiring classic cars.
He loved to socialize, could liven up any party, and occasionally loved his Bud Light.
Lewis was a very caring, dependable and dedicated to helping his friends and family, regardless of the circumstance he never turned his back.
He truly loved life and made a special effort to make sure everyone's life was incredible.
Lewis was inspiring and his life was a good example of how others should treat one another.
