They married in 1961 and raised three children and enjoyed life together for 63 years.

He will be greatly missed by all who knew him. He is preceded in death by his parents, Lewis and Ola Stringfellow, his beloved son, Lewis Nolan Stringfellow, III and three sisters, Margaret Mason, Mary Worley and Monica Dees.
