I send my sincere sympathy to the Family of Lee. For many years I considered myself a good Friend to him and Lisa, and their kids. I still do. My heart is saddened that this world has lost such a sweet man but I am so glad he now has found his peace after so long of suffering health wise. May the angels welcome his sweet Soul until we can join with him in praising our Creator! My love goes to his loved ones left behind.

I will never forget Lee’s kindness and sweetness to the ladies at New Beginnings Church, he was always ready with an umbrella to shield us from the rain, though I know he sat in church very soggy for our sakes. He was always a true gentleman. Till we meet again. ❤️

Our condolences to Lee’s family, what I remember of Lee was his quick intellect and his energy always full of life and endless knowledge of most things, such a kind heart that will be missed by many, but never forgotten. Rest easy Lee.
