What was to come...
I was working quietly in my office in Llano Quemado enjoying the view of Taos Mountain and Wheeler Peak. I heard the door open and in came Lew. He introduced himself and began asking what I new about amateur radio. We talked about radio communications for a bit, but I in my haste to return to my solitude sent him with a task to develop a plan and bring back to me for review. Knowing that most people live on Taos time here, I thought I'd never see him again. Wrong. He returned a few days later with a very elaborate plan and his vision for amateur radio in Taos. That day, Lew and I became good friends.published a comment .
Not a day goes by that I don't think of you. I will forever cherish our friendship. I miss you tons my friend. And I probably chat with you just as much now as I did when you were here. Know that you are never forgotten.

Lew: Back in the 70s we were roommates at USF. I knew you as a genuine guy who worked hard, was gifted in math and was at times a "trickster". Requiescat in pace

I had the pleasure of getting to know Wally during his United Airlines days - he was a great friend, mentor, an example for many of us. I'll miss, most of all, his ready smile with a hint of mischief...
I am extremely sad to see him slip the surly bonds for the last time - it was too soon. Tailwinds my friend.

Wally was and always will be an important part of our United Airlines family especially in the B-757/767 Fleet where he was highly respected and much admired for his professionalism, compassion and skill as an aviator. He was a friend to all and will be deeply missed. Our most sincere condolences to his family and friends. Vaya Con Dios my great friend!

I flew with "Wally Lew" in Fighter Squadron 32 from 1976 thru most of 1977. We were crewed together for most of that time. In 1977 I had the pleasure of attending TOPGUN with Wally ---- at the time we were one of the youngest crews to go thru the training.
Many, many happy memories.
Rest in peace......no longer do you need to check six!!!!
