John Andrew Lewis Jr. of Stoneham, passed away unexpectedly on Tuesday, November 14, 2006 at Melrose Wakefield Hospital in Melrose. He was 72 years of age.

John was a dedicated Mechanical Engineer for Polaroid for many years. He was an avid sports fan. He loved the Patriots, the Red Sox and never missed any of his grandchildren's sports games. He could always be seen walking around Lake Quannapowitt in Wakefield. A devout Catholic, John regularly attended the 4pm Saturday Mass at St. Patrick's Church in Stoneham. He was a very quiet and private man who enjoyed his regular golf game at Unicorn Golf Course in Stoneham. During the Korean War, John proudly defended our country in the United States Army.
