I’m so sorry to hear of Lewis Epley’s passing.
For years we sat at the same table at the Downtown Rotary Club here in Fayetteville.
We also retired at the same time at the last Rotary meeting of the year this past December.
What a true gentleman he was & will be missed by all who knew him….!!

Mr. Epley was a guiding light to faculty and students entering health professions at the University of Arkansas. The Epley Center for Health Professions is a campus landmark that continues his mission. Future nurses, occupational therapists, and speech-language pathologists will continue to thrive due to his gift and shared story. With treasured memories of a wonderful person...Fran Hagstrom
Lewis was one of a kind. He had such an impact on the state, the University of Arkansas, and the NWA health care system. Visiting with him at Rotary and the OMBC were great times. He was a special person that lived a special life.
Lewis was a wonderful member of the Butterfield Trail Village community. He served on the board of directors for many years. He will be greatly missed.

Donna, Lewis may be gone but he will never be forgotten, his dry wit and love of Eureka Springs always helping the Fire Department and the community. You and Lewis made a great couple and that day we had the horrific fire on Pivot Rock Road you both were there with sandwiches and cold drinks, just another time Lewis always came to the top when the chips were down.......Wayne Brashear
