  Former ARRL Western Washington Section Manager Harry Lewis, W7JWJ,
  of Seattle, died October 19. He was 90. Lewis served as WWA Section
  Manager from 1991 until 2003.

  "Harry was very active in ARRL for many years and held many
  positions in the organization," said current Western Washington SM
  Monte Simpson, K2MLS.

  His late wife, former Northwestern Division Director and Western
  Washington SM Mary Lewis, W7QGP, died last March. Survivors include
  a daughter Diana, K7ETY, and a son Gary, WA7BBJ.

  In addition to Section Manager, Lewis served as an ARRL Technical
  Coordinator, Official Emergency Station, Official Bulletin Station,
  and ARRL Registered Instructor who mentored hundreds of prospective
  and new hams. In 2005 Lewis and Connecticut Section Manager Betsey
  Doane, K1EIC, were honored as the co-recipients of the ARRL
  Certification and Continuing Education Mentor/Instructor of the Year
  Award.

  Born in British Columbia, Canada, and first licensed in 1941, Lewis
  was a Life Member of ARRL and QCWA. He was a broadcast engineer and, earlier, a Morse telegrapher. Lewis was a crack high-speed CW
  operator who could copy code in excess of 75 WPM. Services will be
  announced.
