Ella Mae Lewis, age 78, passed away on Thursday, April 25, 2024. She was born on June 18, 1945 in Nash County. Our beloved mother went Home to be with her Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

Fondly known as “woman” she was a true joy to her family. She loved her family and her Lord very dearly.

Ella was a hardware and grocery store owner for many many years. She was a true Christian woman. She had a special sister that she loved, Bettie Baker Bell (James) of the Salem Community.

We would also love to give a big thanks to UNC caregivers to all! Thank you much.
