I had the privilege to work along side Lewis in the US AIRWAYS PIT OCC. His moral values and candid honesty always showed through with great respect. His ability to action items and perform well as a Maintenance Duty Manager was an admirable trait. I used to call him "SUPERMAN" as a direct reflection of the "SUPER" Man he portrayed. His genuine love of aviation and spiritual nature showed through often. He will be missed! Thoughts and prayers to his family and friends. God Bless and God Speed to an honorable man.

I worked with Lewis in my capacity as a line mechanic and later as a maintenance control tech at US Airways & American Airlines. His calm, level headed, approach to problem solving and soft spoken demeanor were attributes I admired and tried to emulate. It was my pleasure and privilege to have known him. Please accept my sad condolences for your families loss.

While Jon and I only had the pleasure of being in Lewis' company a few times, he was truly one of the most kind and gentle souls we have ever met. He had a way of making you feel like you'd known him your whole life. His daughter, Jess, is a beautiful reflection of him. Jon and I send our deepest sympathies to his family and friends. Heaven gained another true angel.
