The Lewis Legacy

Landenberg Life reader Margaret Brainard reached out to the magazine to share some thoughts about the small community of Landenberg. She wrote about life in a small town, the love of family, and the Lewis Legacy.

“We are a small community in Landenberg and as technology advances, the ART of perfection and details sometimes get lost,” she wrote.

She wrote about the work of her brother, Wayne, who really pays attention to the details in his craftsmanship.

“Wayne Lewis is the son of Carl C. and Texie M. Lewis,” she wrote. “I am the youngest of seven children. Our family came here more than 70 years ago and although mother and father are gone, the siblings have remained to honor their legacy. When they purchased this land, it was around 200-plus acres. There have been parts of this land sold off and there are now wonderful neighbors who live here.”

She wrote that Wayne Lewis learned the art of woodworking from their father, who was a farmer and a carpenter by trade, and the elder Lewis taught his son many tricks of the trade.

“Although modern mechanics and technology have moved forward, there is a certain element of perfection that has gotten lost,” she wrote. “I have seen my brother grow over the years with a love for his work. Whether he is working in wood or doing stone work, gardening or cutting trees, he does beautiful work. I am proud of my brother. He was determined to hold on to the legacy that our father instilled in us, and he continues to embrace the tradition today.”

She concluded, “I wanted people to know that, whether you are from a small town or a big city, detail and talent are important and should be valued.”
