September 12, 1951 - February 10, 2022

Lewis Dale Groome went to be with his Lord and Savior on Thursday, February 10, 2022. Known to his family and childhood friends as "Scooter," Lewis was born on September 12, 1951 to Jack and Martha (DeVane) Groome in Greensboro, NC. A graduate of Grimsley High School, Lewis enlisted in the U.S. Navy and was proud to serve on the newly commissioned nuclear submarine "USS Simon Bolivar Gold." Upon completion of his Naval service, Lewis returned to Greensboro and met the love of his life, Brenda Crowell. They were married in 1989 and enjoyed 32 years of marriage until his passing due to an extended illness.

Lewis and Brenda were active members of Living Way Church, Greensboro. A self-taught musician, Lewis was an excellent drummer in his youth and soon learned to play the guitar, to the delight of all who were fortunate enough to have heard him play. Lewis received his associate's degree in computer technology from G.T.C.C.

Lewis was preceded in death by his parents, Jack and Martha Groome; brothers Terry Groome and Jerry Groome. Lewis is survived by his wife of 32 years, Brenda; sister, Leslie Groome Sward (Tom); sister-in-law, Nancy Simpson; brother-in-law, Marshall Crowell (Vicki); nieces, Tracey Groome Bowyer (Sean), Veronica Simpson Perez (Alex), Becky Pendergast, and Sara Crowell; nephews Travis Groome, Brett and T.J.
