The most of the enduring memories I have of Art Lewis were from my time as Jeff’s friend during our early to middle teens. Art was an engineer on the McDonnell Douglas F-15 project, and any kid whose father worked on fighter jets was justifiably proud of that fact. I remember Art as a swell Dad that had a good sense of humor, and was always nice to Jeff’s friends.
