Description

Jason Jay Lewis, a 45-year-old Fairview resident, loved spending time fishing, hiking and camping with his two sons, said the attorney for Lewis' estate.

The family of a 45-year-old Portland-area man who died after emergency room staff allegedly sent him home without antibiotics because they mistook his bacterial strep infection for a viral one — possibly the common cold — has filed a $40.75 million lawsuit against Legacy Health.
