Our sympathy to “Sue” (Remarkel) Lewis, in the loss of her husband “Dick” Lewis, who died suddenly on Wednesday, September 21st at his home in North Mankato, MN. Dick was born in Adrian in 1940 to the late George and “Billie” (Masgai) Lewis. He graduated from Adrian High School and served his country in the U.S. air Force. Dick and Sue lived in North Mankato fro over 40 years. Dick and Sue were members of “The Gang” that was started in Adrian almost 60 years ago. These friends have been so loyal to each other in times of joy and sorrow. Many of them were present at Dick’s funeral and were a great support for his wife Sue. May God be close to Sue and her family as they mourn the death of Dick. God Bless the memory of Dick Lewis.
