Upon returning to Memphis in 1946, Lewis enrolled at the University of Mississippi (Ole Miss) in Oxford, MS, majoring in Abnormal Psychology and pledging to the Kappa Alpha fraternity. After receiving his degree in 1950, he came to Norman, OK to attend the University of Oklahoma in anticipation of expanding the family business, Oklahoma Furniture Manufacturing Company, in Guthrie, OK, into Oil and Gas Exploration in the region. It was in Oklahoma City that he had a blind date with Susie Maurine Poplin.

Sue's two children, Micah and Evelynn, attended also, and the family moved to Guthrie, OK where Lewis took a job at Oklahoma Furniture and worked there until his retirement in 1980. Lewis was also a part owner of the family farming operation, Banks and Company, in Hernando, MS. He later started a land development venture in Hernando, MS that continues today. Lewis was a member of and involved with many international, national, state, and local charities and organizations; including the Guthrie Lions Club, Guthrie, OK and St. Jude's Children's Hospital, Memphis, TN. He enjoyed a keen interest in stamp and coin collecting, photography, short-wave radio listening, and reading. He had an extraordinary knowledge of medical procedures and medicine which he was very proud of sharing with friends and family.
Lewis is survived by his sister Minor LeBlond and her husband Daniel of Ohio; a brother Don Morrow of Santa Fe, NM and four children Micah of Edmond, OK, Evelynn Mackie and her husband Keith of Allen, TX, Phillip and his wife Jennifer of Guthrie, OK, and Georgeanna McCombie and her husband Patrick of Tulsa, OK.
