BELPRE—Lewis Morgan Tippie, 85, of Belpre, OH, passed away Monday, Oct. 13, 2025, at Harmar Place in Marietta, OH, surrounded by his family and friends.
Lewis was born at his home in Little Hocking, OH on Oct. 24, 1939, and the family soon moved to Belpre. He was a 1957 graduate of Belpre High School and soon after graduating went to work at Union Carbide where he worked until retirement in 1987 as a distribution supervisor.
Lew was very outgoing and a friend to all who knew him. He was a very generous and kind person who was known for helping his friends in need. He had his wild side when younger and it was generally agreed that they broke the mold when they made him. He is dearly missed.

In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by his sister, Ellen Tippie Geronomine and brother, Harry James.
