Re: Marshall Lewis
I am sorry to hear that. My prayers go out to his family.
I had the pleasure of meeting and talking with him at the 2014 National MAFCA Meet in Puyallup, WA. A great Model A man indeed...He will truly be missed. Pluck |

Re: Marshall Lewis
At the NCRG meeting yesterday, we voted unanimously to retire his number 13 for all future roundups.

Re: Marshall Lewis
He also restored a very nice hard-top pickup. It had a Cragar conversion, hand-made cover for the bed, etc. All very nice, typical for him. He was a great guy and will be missed.

Re: Marshall Lewis
Truly a loss to our hobby. Marshall's Victoria is on display at the MAFFI Museum. He will be missed.
