Obituary for Lottie M. Lewis

Lottie M.  Lewis
Lottie M. Lewis, of Waco, passed away peacefully in her sleep on Tuesday, June 19, 2018. Visitation will be at 6:00 PM on Friday, June 22, followed by a Rosary at 7:00 PM at OakCrest Funeral Home Chapel, 4520 Bosque Boulevard, Waco. There will be Mass of Christian Burial celebrated at St. Louis Catholic Church, Waco, on Saturday, June 23, at 10:00 AM. Interment will follow at Waco Memorial Park.

Lottie was born July 7, 1925 in Fredericksburg, TX. After graduating high school at St. Mary’s School, Lottie attended Santa Rosa Nursing School in San Antonio, TX where she received her Registered Nursing degree in 1946. While at Santa Rosa, she met her future husband of 64 years Henry B. Lewis. They married on June 18, 1947. In the seven years they lived in San Antonio, they had five children. In 1954, the family moved to Waco, TX where they would have two more children and live the rest of their lives.

Lottie was a loving wife, mother, grandmother and great-grandmother who spent her entire life caring for and putting her family first. She was the sweetest mom anyone could hope for and beloved by all who knew her and will be greatly missed.

Lottie was preceded in death by her husband, Henry B. Lewis, in 2011, her parents, Joseph Molberg and Maria H. Molberg and sisters and brothers, Ann Molberg, Rose Molberg, Dora Meurer, Sister Elizabeth Claire Molberg, Robert Molberg, Max Molberg, Rita Kaderli, and Mary Knopp and great-grandchild, James Lewis III.

She is survived by sisters, Louise Probst of Fredericksburg and Agnes Knopp and husband James of Austin; seven children, Keith Lewis of Richardson, Jim Lewis and wife, Eileen, of Westphalia, Kathy Lewis of Austin, Teresa Evans and husband, Charles, of Kyle, Elaine Blair of Waco, Jon Lewis and wife, Carla, of Austin and Chris Lewis of Hewitt; 14 grandchildren and 15 great-grandchildren.

The family would especially like to thank the wonderful people at Home Instead, Hillcrest Hospital, and Ridgecrest Retirement and Health Care for the care they gave their mom in the last years of her life.

In lieu of flower, the family suggests you donate to your favorite charity.
