Mona Lewis (Mrs. George L.)

Post by Mike Perlowin »

Mona passed away Thursday evening. I don't know the details. We've all seen her, along with daughters Kim and Lisa, at the convention working at the George L booth selling both the George L products and the things she made- I don't know what to call them.

She was 75. George passed away last May. They are together again.

Condolences to Kim and Lisa.

Sorry to hear this. She always "took care of me" when I bought strings at St Louis or at their shop in Madison.

Our condolences as well....George and Mona were long time friends from Decatur, Illinois, before George ever moved to Nashville and became a part of
Sho-Bud. I miss them; may they rest in peace.

I just got word of this from Sandy when I called to place a string order.

This saddens me as Mona was such a great lady.

She will surely be missed.
