Obituary of Carla J. Lewis
Please share a memory of Carla to include in a keepsake book for family and friends.
Carla J. Lewis, 55, of Niles, passed tragically from this life on Sunday, August 13, 2017.
She was born in Benton Harbor, Michigan to Wayne C. and Darlene J. (Benford) Arent. In 1984 Carla married Steven Damico at a ceremony in St. Joseph. Carla and Steve's marriage ended after twenty-two years and considered their two daughters as reason enough to remain friends. She graduated from St. Joseph High School and earned a Bachelor's Degree in Accounting from Indiana Tech. Carla worked for the Whirlpool Corporation for over twenty years. She most recently worked for Bayer Pharmaceuticals. On June 30, 2012 Carla married John Lewis at a ceremony in Mishawaka. She attended Fulkerson Park Baptist Church in Niles and enjoyed assisting her daughter at the church with baby showers. Those who are close to Carla will know how much she liked to shop, Snapchat daily and scrapbooking. Carla always placed the wellbeing of others before herself. Her greatest love and passion was reserved for her family. She was always a loving mom and was a doting grandmother, attending all of her grandchildren's sporting events and activities.
Carla was preceded in death by her grandson, Jason "JJ" Pruett.
She is survived by her parents, Wayne Arent of St. Joseph and Darlene J. Arent of Muskegon, her two daughters, Christy (Jason) Pruett of Niles and Danielle (Dustin) Bullock of Spanaway, Washington, eight grandchildren; Isaiah, Adam, Noah, Hannah, Elijah, Jonah, Malachi and Ezekiel (which is due to arrive any day), a sister, Renee (Len) Burrington of Muskegon, Michigan as well as a host of countless lives she has touched.
