December 22, 1940 - October 23, 2017

December 22, 1940 Jack Lewis was born on a river in Newport, Arkansas and went on to be with the Lord on October 23, 2017. The river water ran through his veins. Nothing made him happier than being on the river or lake, as long as it was water. When he wasn't on the water, he was in the woods, as he loved hunting.

He had many friends, but had three life-long friends, J.O. Wheeler, Ronald Rose, and Ed Cooper. A real special friend was Jan Hoefler. She was his caregiver, along with his daughter, Angela. They were the ones who kept him off the ''hill.''

He was preceded in death by his Wife Eva (Bales) Lewis, Mother Paula Lewis, Father Happy Lewis, Brothers Robert (Bob) Lewis, Sam Lewis, and Sister Barbara Smith.

He is survived by his Daughter Angela Lewis (Jan Hoefler), Sons Kurt Lewis (Linda Lewis), Christopher Lewis, Richard Lewis, Sister Ida Cox (Paul Cox), Brother Albert Lewis (Kelly Lewis), seven grandchildren, twelve great-grandchildren, as well as several nieces and nephews. Jack was an avid hunter and fisherman who was loved by family and friends.
