John W. Lewis Jr. ’46

Our 50th-reunion yearbook reported that Jack Lewis had not been heard from since 1952 and that his address was unknown. Before our 65th reunion, however, he checked in with a Burke, Va., address at which he lived until he died Oct. 13, 2012, in Salisbury, Md.

Obituaries in The Washington Post and in the Republican Herald of Pottsville, Pa., reported that Jack “was retired from the Government Accountability Office and prior to that was a jeweler for more than 25 years.” It added that he was “an avid Civil War history buff and loved sailing and traveling.”

Jack was preceded in death by his wife, Nancy Green Lewis. He is survived by two sons, David J. and Michael W.; and his granddaughter, Kara A. Lewis. The class reaches out warmly to Jack’s family.
