 Lula Lewis

February 06, 1936 – February 07, 2025

Lula Lewis, 89, was born on February 6, 1936, in Sylvania, Ga to the late Doc Lewis and Anna Bell Lewis. Lula made her transition on February 7, 2025, at Ogeechee Area Hospice in Guyton, GA. Lula attended school in Sylvania, Ga. At an early age, Lula left Sylvania, Ga and moved to New York City where she worked for New York State as a transporter and opened the doors of her home to help children in foster care.  Lula adopted 4 children from New York and later returned to Sylvania where she is a member of Charlestown Methodist Church and continued to open the doors of her home to children in foster care. 

Lula enjoyed getting up early every Saturday morning and going to yard sales, playing cards & slot machines and watching the news.  Lula also loved entertaining people in her home.  She would put together a meal in 5 minutes in one pot and feed everyone.  This is also how she became known as “One Pot Lula”.

Lula was predeceased by McAuthur Lewis, Alma Lewis, Doc Lewis Jr, Geraldine Lewis, Jim Lewis, Andrew Lewis, Casper Lewis and Jewel Lewis.  Her memories will forever be cherished by his loving children Darnell Williams, Keith (Sherry) Williams, Jeffery Jackson, David Lewis, Kenneth Lewis, Clarence Lewis, and Joey Lewis as well as his siblings Roosevelt Lewis, Marian Statan and Marjorie Rogers.  She also leaves behind 13 grandchildren, 22 great-grandchildren, 2 great great-grandchildren, along with a host of nieces, nephew, cousins, other relatives, and sorrowing friends.
