Guy Elmo Lewis, Jr. (Guy) of Sunnyvale, Texas, born January 30, 1922, passed away on September 14, 2007. Son of Guy Elmo Lewis, Sr. and Emma Virginia Lewis.

Guy served as Property Manager for the Veterans Administration in the Dallas area for over 44 years, beginning in 1957. His management territory included Dallas, Collin, Hunt, and Rockwall counties.

Guy is survived by his wife of 60 years, Rita Lewis and son Tom Lewis and his wife Cindy Lewis of Frisco; son, Steve Lewis and his wife Pam Lewis of Houston. Guy is also survived by grandchildren Kimberly Lewis, Matthew Lewis, Robert Lewis, Sean Lewis, Cassidy Schulz, and Mandy Schulz.

Guy was a fourth generation Lewis that was born in Dallas County. He was a graduate of Mesquite High School and earned his bachelors degree in Business from SMU. He was a second lieutenant serving in the United States Air Force during World War II, and was a pilot flying B-24?s.

Guy and Rita started the Guy Lewis Real Estate and Insurance Company in 1953. Rita was Guy?s partner in life and business for the 60 years of their marriage, basically 24 hours a day. They were a unique couple that worked together as a terrific team. Guy was recently recognized by the Greater Dallas Association of Realtors as being one of the ten realtors in the Dallas area to hold a Texas real estate brokers license for over 50 years. Guy retired from the active business community just a few years ago at the age of 80.

Guy ran for a seat in the Texas State Legislature during 1968, and was a dedicated Precinct Chairman in Dallas County for many years. Guy was a strong supporter and active within The Masonic Lodge, The Scottish Rite, and The Shriners of North America his entire adult life.

Guy loved to travel with his wife and family and truly enjoyed going to the Wiley Opry every Saturday night to experience emerging singing talent. He developed many treasured friendships at the Opry. Guy and Rita had a long-standing summer tradition of visiting their grandsons at Boy Scout summer camps throughout Texas, Oklahoma and New Mexico.

Guy was a proud member of the First Baptist Church Sunnyvale and a member of the Omega Sunday school class. His love for his wife, family, country and his Savior Jesus Christ was unsurpassed.
