Dear Judy, Nancy, Kelly & Stephanie,
We were very sorry we were not able to attend the funeral service for Lee. We were saddened to hear of his passing. Our relationship with Lee went back over 30 years. He truly, in our opinion, was a true "southern gentleman". Our relationship with Lee was more than professional, we always considered him to be a good friend. We always enjoyed seeing him and exchanging stories about our grandchildren. He was a kind and gentle man and we will miss him.

My heart is saddened by the loss of Sonny. I, too, have such fond memories of Sonny when growing up. He was such a dear cousin with such a beautiful smile. It was always so much fun to be around him. I know he will be greatly missed but oh, what a celebration it will be when we join him in Heaven. Know that you are all dear to my heart! God bless all of you! I love you!

May God bless all of the family at this time of sorrow. I know it is hard, but he is not in pain anymore. He is with the Lord now. He is still in all our hearts and memories. I have lots of great memories as kids of him.
May God bless you all.

Dear Lee's Family:
Lee and I first met at Southern Missionarry College and have remained friends ever since. He was also my accountant for decades. I tried to call to see if you wanted an announcement in the Sligo SDA Church bulletin (301) 270-6777 and the Beltsville SDA Church Bulletin (301) 937-8118, but was unable to talk to any one.
May God be with you in this time of loss. As Christians, we have the blessed hope of spending eternity with God and our family and friends.
Blessings,

Words cannot express the deepest amount of sympathy I have for the family and everyone who were blessed with the pleasure of knowing Daddy-Hollis. His unconditional love and contagious smile lives on in his family and friends.
