Bio
John E. Reese Jr.
I have foound that Dr. Lewis is a man of not only intelligence, integrity and vison, but he his a man of conviction and compassion. I have watch him meet people where they are at, and then lift them with insighful scholastic astute reasoning. For a young man, he is ahead of his years. It is yet to be determined as to how many lives he will impact on his quest for the greater good of all. I'm grateful that our paths have intersected and because of our encounter it is yet to be determined what positive ventures is ahead for both of us. Thank you Dr. Wayne D. Lewis for your leadership and brotherly frieindship.
Elton Taylor, Jr.
Wayne and I attended high school (St. Augustine) and college together. I was impressed as a teen with how Wayne was able to lead quietly. He didn't need a bunch of pomp and circumstance to earn people's followship. I always knew he would be someone to keep in touch with because his work ethic spoke volumes of his character.
