To the McCathan family, especially my dear sister Sheila. I'm sorry to hear of your loss of our dear brother Lee as we called him as we all came up together at Baber Chapel. We all have fond memories and I enjoyed and will always cherish the quietness of Lee. My prayers are with you all. Love Debra Bellesen (Thomas)
