It is with a heavy heart that the Peace Corps Commemorative Foundation announces the passing of our President, Roger K. Lewis, who died on Wednesday at his home in Washington, D.C. after undergoing a medical procedure. He was 83, and is survived by his wife Ellen, their son Kevin and his wife, and four granddaughters.

Already, the Park is meeting its goal of uniting the many groups that make up the Peace Corps and broader volunteer service community in planting a flag in the nation’s capital. With your continued support, Peace Corps Park will help raise the profile of the Peace Corps itself, and its mission to create a more peaceful world through friendship, partnership and understanding.
