Mish Lewis: Well-Known SoHum Resident Passes

This section includes both obituaries and memories. Honoring our loved ones who have died does not end immediately after their passing. We recognize that… so we’re extending our obituary section to include individuals who may have left a long time ago. If you want to remember someone who is gone, either recently or longer ago, please send a photo and a few sentences to [email protected].

❤️ it’s been years since we last connected but memories of mud splashed roads and her cozy cabin to seeking refuge from the rain at her Ruby Valley home remain. Mish always welcomed.
Rest easy old friend.
Juli and Caitlin ~ holding you close.

Long time no see. Yet memories of laughter and enthusiasm working together on a community project, stand fresh in mind.
Farewell Mish. Thank you for the warm friendship and the kindness!

Mish also had a chosen son, me. She took me under her wing in 1983 after the death of my birth mother. All I can say about Mish is best mom ever!
