CORNWALL, Lewis Francis

Born in London, England to Frank and Brenda (Lewis) Cornwall. He moved to Canada in 1956 and to Salt Spring Island around 1974.

Married Beth (Owen) on December 11, 1981, and had three children: Micheal (Melissa), Roshann (John), and William. Proudest of all, grandson Seth from Mike. Big brother to Tracey, Dorothy (Dean), Dean, and Rosheen (Mark).

Lewis was happiest on the ocean, in his garden, and on the soccer field. He was a great husband, father, grandfather, son, brother, uncle, and friend. His teachings will never be forgotten, even if you’re as useful as a bag of hammers. Cherish your families, your friends, and your neighbours!
