Bertha A. Lewis

Bertha Ann Lewis of Salado passed peacefully in her sleep in the early morning of September 15th.
There will be no burial after her cremation until her beloved husband of 70 years passes on. Bert was
born October 30, 1933, in Oyster Bay Long Island, New York to Walter and Mary Stepnowski.
She attended Frenchtown High School in New Jersey where she met Bud Lewis on the first day of their
senior year. It was love at first sight. They married in December of 1952, shortly after graduation in
June of 1952. They have lived an amazing life side-by-side. She was a doting wife and mother while her
husband was advancing in his career. She raised two sons alongside her husband, then dealt with the
death of their youngest son, David in 2002.

Lisa Lewis and her brother, Walter Stepnowski, who still resides in Long Island, N.Y.
