A Giant Voice in the Community is Now Silent

Robert Washington, Jr. was a successful businessman and public servant who lived in

San Antonio, TX most of his adult life. He had a philanthropic nature. He believed that

giving back to the community was an important segment of his being; that service to the

community was as important as success in running the Lewis Funeral Home. “There was

nothing he wouldn’t do to help someone in need,” said one of his employees. Whether

giving to area churches or helping local children’s organizations, Robert was unceasing in

his support. He also served the community as an employee, then manager, then owner of

the Lewis Funeral Home for a total of more than 50 years. Robert passed away peacefully

on April 6, 2011. His passing marks an end to an era of devotional service to his fellow

man. His voice is stilled yet his memory lingers on.
