Larry Lewis was like an uncle to me to growing up. I'm going to miss hearing "Heyyyy, Miss Danielle" when I come home to check the mailbox of my parents' home. His death hits home, but how lucky am I spend so many years in the presence such a joyous personality. Rest in Power, Larry. Sending my love and prayers to the family for comfort during this time. ❤️ -Danielle McClean
