It has been an honor to work for Lew for the last 8 years. As long as he had work to do, I would always be his assistant. :) He was a wonderful lawyer, boss, friend and father-figure. He was truly one of the greatest men I've ever known. It's been a privilege and my life is better for having known him. I would like to extend my deepest sympathy to Lucy and the whole family and my prayers are with you in this time of sorrow. Lew had a passion for practicing law and often said he hopes they can use a good lawyer in heaven so he can stay busy! He will be sorely missed, but fondly remembered.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you during this time. We did not have the opportunity to get to know Mr. DiRosario, but we have the pleasure and the great blessing of being neighbors to his son (Lew) and family. He must have been a wonderful man to have raised such a giving son. God Bless you all.

Dear Lucy and Family, I was sorry to hear of Lew's passing. I worked for him as a temp for several weeks before Martha became his secretary. He was a fine lawyer who fought hard for his clients and a wonderful person, one of the kindest men I've ever met.
