I am sorry to hear about Lee and extend my heartfelt condolences. Thank you so much Judy for calling to let me know.
I fondly remember the fun we had with your mom and dad when we lived at Crossfield. I shall always remember their kindess.
Memories of Uncle Lee will always bring a smile to me. He was a quiet man of character who loved his family dearly. Those of us lucky enough to be counted family felt that love! Gone, but definitely not forgotten.
