Clyde Wade Lewis Jr.

Clyde Wade “Bo” Lewis, Jr. entered the gates of Heaven on Saturday, November 25, 2023. Bo was predeceased by his parents, Clyde Wade Lewis, Sr. and Doris Jean (Woodard). Bo was born on July 24, 1969, in Mobile, Alabama. An only child, he spent most of his childhood in Agricola, Mississippi surrounded by his nineteen first cousins creating memories through menace and outdoor concerts. Many innings of baseball were played and coached during these years too. In the summer he traveled to forty-eight states with his beloved Dad in his cabover Peterbuilt, where he got some of the best sleep of his life and met extraordinary people such as Sparky Anderson. In 1987 he completed George County High School then attended Mississippi Junior College. He was a certified pipe welder by trade. Throughout his career he explored all facets of the welding and manufacturing industries as well as human resources and recruiting. There was truly nothing about the industry he could not do! He always enjoyed sharing stories about incidents that occurred on the road and on jobsites, which I might add you could not make these up. From Becon, Brown and Root, Worldwide Labor and Training, Lead Staffing, Central Maintenance and Welding to JT Construction and all the others in between many friends were made along the way. His experience, determination and drive afforded his family many opportunities and experiences we will be forever grateful for. Our favorite travel destinations as a family included Disney, The Smokey Mountains and anywhere close to the water. He also enjoyed gaming on the Mississippi Gulf Coast. Fishing, hunting, boating, camping, and golf occupied many of his sighted days on Earth. A devout Alabama fan, it seems almost fitting he passed after the Iron Bowl victory, Roll Tide!! Until we meet again, I’ll love you forever, I’ll love you always and I love you the most! Bo was past master of Nederland Masonic Lodge #1368 AF&AM, former Float D Captain of the Mobile Mystics. He attended Movella Assembly of God in Lucedale, Mississippi. Bo’s tenacity and jovial spirit was a blessing to all who knew him. Bo is survived by his devoted wife of twenty years, Kymberly Smith Lewis. Adoring and loving daughter, Madalyn “Gracie” Lewis, and devoted son and his “right hand man,” Mason Wade Lewis and his dear “fur babies.” As well as countless and devoted friends and family. Including the Bradford’s, Bleyswyk’s and Kittrell’s. Friends and family are invited to sign the guest book online and share their memories. Funeral services are planned for Monday, December 4, 2023 at 2:00 p.m at Serenity Funeral Home, 8691 Old Pascagoula Road, Theodore, AL 36582. The visitation will be held from 11:00 am until the service time. The burial will immediately follow in Serenity Memorial Gardens. Brother Alan Hinton and Larry Turner will officiate services. Active pallbearers are Shelby Bleyswyk, Tommy Bradford, Roy Crutchfield, Randy Spann, Duane Stringer, and Johnny Woodard. Shelby Bleyswyk Sr., Eddie Clayton, Tim Kittrell, Mason Lewis, Ken Muse, and Mike Turner will serve as honorary pallbearers. The family would like to extend a special thank you to Mobile Infirmary Medical Center. The nurses and staff of three west, CCU and MICU as well as Dr. Andrew Felis for impeccable care and attention to detail.
