Changes

In the 1990s, Lewis worked with southern soul singers Carl Sims and Vickie Baker. Because of the difficulty of operating a competitive independent record label in a major-label dominated industry, Lewis offered Jewel Records for sale while retaining control of his music publishing companies and the Susie Q and Gospel Jubilee labels, which recorded Doug Kershaw and Ace Cannon. In 1999, EMusic.com purchased from Lewis the recording rights of the Jewel label. Lewis in his later years was a consultant for an [[Internet]] music business located in Redwood, [[California]].<ref name=findagrave/> KEEL Radio said that Lewis "did it all. Shreveport's rich musical history probably wouldn't be what it is without Stan and his work." In 2009, Lewis was inducted into the Louisiana Music Hall of Fame.<ref name=keel/>
