I was so sorry to hear about Uncle Lewis passing. He was one person I wanted to see again when I got back from overseas and now that opportunity is gone. I am sure he is with Aunt Charlotte again now on that other side of the rainbow bridge. Many of my best memories as a boy are on that farm up on Mt Zion surrounded by the entire clan, having cookouts and the reunions. One great memory is when we were about 12 and we were celebrating 4th of July at the farm. Using the fireworks, one nameless son, he knows who he is blew the cows bathtub watering station bottom out. I thought we were going to be killed by Uncle Lewis that day but he just told us to go get the other tub from the barn and just put it out where the other one was and fill it up with water. I will miss him a lot more than all of you realize, he was my favorite uncle and I didn't get to visit nearly enough over the years. I hope you all remember the good times and hope those memories will help you through this time of grief. Love all you guys, Larry, Lourdes and the kids.

I am so sorry to hear of Uncle Lewis passing. I have many many great memories of times at the Nelson home with all of the family. I spent a lot of time there as a child and will cherish the memories forever. I am sorry that the years and miles kept me from visiting as I got older. May God comfort all of you knowing that he is now with Aunt Charlotte again.

Thoughts and prayers to the entire Nelson family. I've known all of you my entire life...your mother and father were amazing good people. Louie to me had the kindest heart and I always loved the fact he was a character. Now he is with the Lord and Heaven just got a little brighter. God bless everyone! Howdy Carns

I was heartbroken to hear the news of Uncle Lewis' passing, but felt at ease knowing he will be with Aunt Charlotte again... There were no greater people on this Earth. I loved nothing more than going to their house when I was a little girl...a house always full of people I loved, full of laughter and full of love and you always had a full belly too! I can honestly say their home was my favorite place in this world. They are greatly responsible for my amazing childhood. I loved Aunt Charlotte and Uncle Lewis immensely and wish I didn't live so far away and let my busy life keep me away... My heart goes out to all of my cousins. You are all in my thoughts and prayers. Rest in peace Uncle Lewis. I love you. P.S. Go Steelers! Love Always & Forever, April (Hunter, Madison & Olivia too)

Back when...the Nelson's and Ogden's always were there for each other. My Dad told steories which I can't remember now but always about some exciting thing they did, especially the hunting stories. I imagine they are up in heaven right now hashing out some of their far fetched stories. So sorry for your loss.
