Grandma Lewis' Funeral

Ben’s grandma (his mother’s mother), Norma Andersen Lewis, passed away on January 10, 2009 at the age of 90. Grandma Lewis was born July 16, 1918 in Vineyard Utah. She had four children; Larry, Nedra (Ben’s Mom), Sandy and Kent. She was an amazing pianist and musician. She was a work horse- and still had a garden last summer. She baked bread and was an exceptional cook.



















Ben and I had the chance to get to know Grandma Lewis very well when we were at school at BYU-Idaho. We would go to her house and help her garden and help her around her house. She would tell us stories about her husband Bud, her kids and her childhood. It was such a blessing to get to know Grandma Lewis and such a privilege.

We went up to Idaho Falls with his mom, dad, and sister, Rachel to help get things arranged for the funeral. The funeral service was beautiful and was a wonderful tribute to the life of Grandma Lewis. It was wonderful to see family and friends but a sad time to say goodbye to Grandma Lewis.
