David “Little Man” Lewis, Jr. given to us on October 26, 1979.

He filled our hearts with love and joy. Then he chose to share that love with everyone he met. His lifelong dream was to fix every vehicle that he touched. At the age of 11, he overhauled his first engine and started driving his own vehicle to school. With that start, he began to work on every vehicle that needed to be fixed. Whether he charged for his labor or not made no difference as long as your vehicle was fixed. He went on to become a Master Mechanic. He fixed vehicles that no one else seemed to be able to fix. He was like Wal-Mart; he could do everything. His side hobby was building crosses out of cedar, including the ones in front of Shelby County jail. He also loved painting pictures. One joy of his life was to repair and ride motorcycles. He never met a challenge that he didn’t take on. Even though he made mistakes in his life, it was outweighed by the good he did for others. He will be greatly missed by everyone that knew and loved him.

Son, Mama and Daddy always loved you no matter what and we will miss your joy, smile, and laughter more than anyone will know or understand. We know you have moved on and you still have our love. –Mama and Daddy
