Wallace Lewis remembered online

Taken at the funeral for Wallace Lewis, May 19, 2007 by Leroy CumbieLast week we shared the sad news about the passing of Wallace Lewis, an original member of the storied Lewis Family.

The family has posted a lovely remembrance page on their official web site, which includes the text of the eulogy delivered at his funeral, as well as links to his published obituary and an article on his passing in The Augusta Chronicle.

There are a great many photos there as well, including ones taken at the funeral (5/19), and a sampling of pictures of Wallace through the years.
