It is with heavy hearts that we mourn the passing of Lew Goodwin.
Coach Lew wasnât just a coach. He was a remarkable husband, father, friend, and a father figure to hundreds of Knights.
He lived every day by giving back, believing in young men, and leading with both toughness and love. If you had the opportunity to know Coach, you loved his sense of humor, his laugh, and the way he made everyone around him feel like family.
Coach was a winner. He was a champion. He dedicated four decades of his life to Bishop Luers Football, roaming the sidelines during 11 of our 12 state championship seasons. He expected excellence. No plays off, toughness, grit, and playing for your teammates, the former Knights who came before you, and Bishop Luers High School. Coach understood that Bishop Luers Football was bigger than any one person. It was always about family.
His impact on Bishop Luers Football will never be forgotten. His legacy will live on in every Knight who had the privilege of knowing him.
Our prayers are with his wife, Amy, his children, and his grandchildren. We are all going to miss him deeply.
