 On Monday, July 9, 2018, Lewis Reid passed away at the age of 92.  Born in Kerny, NJ to Ernest and Etta Bergstrom on April 17, 1926.  Etta passed away a short time later, and Lewis was raised by an Aunt and Uncle, Alta, and Ralph L. Reid.
Growing up on the St Lawrence River near Alexandria Bay, he played baseball and hockey, in addition to achieving Eagle Scout in the Boy Scouts of America.  Enlisting in the Army 10 days before his 18th birthday he told the Army that he could ski, which landed him in the 10th Mountain Division in Northern Italy.  Lewis earned a Purple Heart from a Fascist bullet, and President Truman’s decisiveness saved him from being redeployed to fight in the Pacific.
Attending Clarkson University for Electrical Engineering.    Member of Lambda Iota Fraternity.  Lewis got his Professional Engineering License, eventually forming his own sales engineering firm as President, Cook & Reid, Inc.  A Life member of American Society of Heating Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Engineers, and universally respected in his profession by his peers.
Married to his childhood sweetheart, M. Elaine Root in 1948, the union produced three children; Ralph L. Reid II, Lawrence D. Reid, and Veronica L. Reid (French) resulting in five Grandchildren; Ethan Johanns, Evan Johanns, Jacob French, Amelia Bozek, and Adrian Bozek. Lewis lived as an incredibly selfless Father and Husband, enjoying golf and being on the water.   Predeceased by his devoted wife, Elaine, Lewis dedicated his energy to the Presbyterian Church, Masonic Lodge, and volunteer work in the community of Skaneateles.
Calling hours will be held on Friday, July 13th from 4 to 7pm at Robert D. Gray Funeral Home, Skaneateles.  A memorial service will be held on Saturday, July 14th at 11am at the Presbyterian Church, Skaneateles. Interment is Monday, July 16th at the Riverside Cemetery, Wellesley Island, at 2:00 PM.
In lieu of flowers, donations to Honor Flight, the Presbyterian Church or the Masonic Home will all be appreciated.  To send condolences visit: robertdgrayfuneralhome.com.

We are so sorry for your loss. We hope you will be comforted, as we were, by the wonderful hope of seeing our loved ones again right here on earth. (John 5:28,29) Also, our Creator's loving promise of ending pain and death. (Revelation 21:1-5) We can have confidence this promise refers to the earth because there has never been death in heaven.

It seems so unfair that death should have the power to take away someone you love; and when it happens , the thought of never again being able to talk to, laugh with, or hold your love one can be most difficult to bear. That pain is not necessarily erased by being told that your love one is up in heaven. The bible, holds a out a much different hope. At Job 14:14,15, it says that the God of comfort Jehovah, yearns to bring back those who are in his memory and to see them alive on earth. I really hope this thought brings family and friends comfort.

To the Reid family,
My husband and I learned of your father's death only recently. We enjoyed visiting with him when we were in Syracuse. He was a loving man who took care of his wife, Elaine, as he had promised: "in sickness and in health, until death do us part." Lewis enjoyed talking about his children and grandchidren, taking pride in their accomplishments and always recognizing them as the good people they are. My late mother-in-law, Ruth Cranker Malstrom, often spoke of Elaine and Lewis, and the many good times they shared during their lives. Remember that Elaine and Lewis are no longer parted by death, but are together again in the life everlasting, and keep their memories alive in your hearts forever.

I TESTED POSITIVE FOR HSV-2 A FEW MONTHS AGO.
At first, Yes, I was devastated thinking I have an incurable STD for life. After doing hours of research I quickly realized genital herpes is a filthy parasite that just likes to hide in your body. Yes, There’s no “medical cure” but that doesn’t mean your body can’t get rid of it. I literally flush it out of my system with the help of Doctor Azuka, A natural herbal medicine which I ordered after doing some research. And now I’m HSV-2 negative, I never believed it until my doctor finally gave me the test results and behold I was HSV-2 free. I’m so glad that I found you, Doctor Azuka. Thanks so much for your goodness I’m grateful. You can also get your help from him through his

My ex-husband and I had always managed to stay friendly after our divorce in February 2017. But I always wanted to get back together with him, All it took was a visit to this spell casters website last December, because my dream was to start a new year with my husband, and live happily with him.. This spell caster requested a specific love spell for me and my husband, and I accepted it. And this powerful spell caster began to work his magic. And 48 hours after this spell caster worked for me, my husband called me back for us to be together again, and he was remorseful for all his wrong deeds. My spell is working because guess what: My “husband” is back and we are making preparations on how to go to court and withdraw our divorce papers ASAP. This is nothing short of a miracle. Thank you Dr Emu for your powerful spells. Words are not enough.
