July 15th is the birthday of Paul Joseph Lewis Sr.: husband of Margaret; father of Mary Ella, PJ Jr., Robert, William and Timothy; brother, uncle, cousin, teammate and friend to many more folks.
He was a scholar athlete at the University of Notre Dame, earning two BAs (Business Administration and Management Information Systems) while competing in a wide variety of Track & Field events--mid- and long-distance running, discus, javelin, steeplechase and more. I don't know for a fact, but I think this suggests Paul was a decathlete.

Today, Paul works as Operations Manager and, together with his wife Margaret, is raising five terrific kids. He is as good and gentle as he is big and strong, and Uncle Bob saw that in him the first time he saw Paul.
He stays active today and recently completed the Zion Narrows top-to-bottom hike with Margaret and others, and ran in the Cowtown Marathon charitable run in Fort Worth (I'm not sure if he ran the 5K, 10K, half, or full marathon).
So, Happy Birthday, PJ, and may you have 82 more healthy ones, by the Aunt Joannie Sullivan Law of Longevity Aspiration of 2008.
God bless us and save us and keep us from harm.
Love, Patty
