Dr Victor Edward Lewis

(7th September 1942 - 24th June 2023)

Vic was well known locally as a founder member of Richmond Council’s Health Walk scheme, planning walks and leading them in Bushy Park and around the borough for many years. He was delighted to see the walks go from strength to strength, bringing people together. He also served as Secretary of Richmond Ramblers for many years, leading walks and helping organise the walks programme. He also enjoyed volunteering with the Friends of Bushy and Home Parks.

Vic was a research physicist at the National Physical Laboratory (NPL). He was a thoughtful, kind and unassuming man with a great sense of humour and love of adventure. His six grandchildren brought him much pleasure and pride. Vic and Diana spent 58 happy and fulfilling years together. Vic was greatly loved and will be greatly missed by his family and friends.

A Few Kind Words...

“Thank you for the care and support you gave to us all at the funeral of Annette Streetley, we did appreciate you kindness as we first stepped through the door at your Claygate branch and the days following. I know Tony, Rachel & Andrew were extremely grateful”

David & Betty Wakeford

“I cannot believe that a month has passed since we first met, the day after Brian died. Within a short time of our encounter, I know that an occasion I had always dreaded would be transformed into a positive, memorable occasion – and so it was!

Your warm and practical attitude, as well as highly professional advice, immediately instils confidence. Every detail of the proceedings is meticulously explained and I felt completely relaxed. Thank you Jess for making everything work so well. You are a remarkable lady with a definite vocation and I wish you all the very best for the future. I felt I found a real, new friend, just when I needed it most.”

Irene

Dear Mr Alan Greenwood, I cannot thank you and your team in Bookham enough, for the excellent service they provided in every respect in the Cremation of my wife.

Your resident Funeral Consultant Mary fully explained all we needed to understand and advised the options available to us.

Her in depth knowledge of all the service providers including, Order of Service, authors and print selection, Celebrant, Hall and refreshments.

So many things which without her I would have been lost.

In the past few days I have received so very many complements and praise for the service you gave.

Do please allow other potential clients to share our experience.

Yours sincerely

Terry Eves-Thorpe

She was so kind to Jean my very elderly cousin especially on the ride back in the Limo taking us through Richmond Park and chatting all the way. We then went on to have a family picnic in Jean’s garden in the sunshine a lovely way to remember Joyce and the perfect day for Jean. Very many thanks from all of us in North Wales.”
