I went to school with Lew at Lorain High in the 1970's. He was in a couple classes with me.  I moved away to (Akron) after I graduated.  I saw him again about 15 years later while visiting my brother, Boyd. It was short visit, but nice to see him again.  I have since moved back here to Lorain.  I just thought Lew was one of my favorite people I've ever known that walked threw my life.  He did light up the room and such a "flirt" with all of us girls.  But we all liked him in our own special way. I worked in the office and he would always walk in a "little late" and he knew he could always charm me.  I always had the signed papers passes (of our Lorain High secretary) and let him go to class without getting in to trouble.  I was really sad to hear he had passed. I don't know what he was like in later years and I hoped he had a good life.   My condolences to his wife and children.  Just know, he's charming some one up there with his smile and getting back in good graces with all his friends, he  knew throughout his life. And I hope he is in peace.  Chris Weber
