Big Bro., as I sit here in the early morning hours reminiscing about you its still hard to process the truth. I know you're gone, but you will never be forgotten. l can't listen to your voice, but I still hear you speaking. I can't touch you, but your life touched my heart. In my younger years when I didn't have the strength, you were there my rock. When I was sick, you visited me. When I was down, you encouraged me. When I didn't have, you gave. Thank you for being an ever present role model in my life. And l thank GOD that I was blessed to be a small part of your life. REST now Big Bro.--- the troubles of this life will trouble you no more.
I LOVE YOU. TILL THAT DAY WE'RE TOGETHER AGAIN
You have finished this race and have moved on to bigger and better things. I wish you a peaceful journey. Enjoy your eternal rest and God receives you. Well done, Sir!!!
I will always remember the times we played dominoes and attended Forest Brook football games and track meets together. Mr. Lewis was definitely a man’s kind of man. Rest well in power, Mr. Lewis!!!
To the Lewis family, my most sincere condolences and deepest sympathy, to Big Chris, whom I love like my own Son, stay strong in your toughest moments, your family needs you more than ever now, continue to be the MAN your Father taught you to be and remember, your Dallas family stands with you and your family during these difficult times, know Coach Charles loves you unconditionally!
