NEWBORN,
LELAND ALLEN (LEE)
Leland Allen (Lee) Newborn of McIntosh Florida was
welcomed into heaven Monday
January 8, 2018 after a lengthy illness.
Lee was born March 19, 1937 in Newnan, GA. During a long and distinguished career in law enforcement he served in various departments, retiring as Major of the Florida Highway Patrol after 42 years of distinguished service. He was a Ruling Elder in the

Teresa, I was surfing internet tonight and came across Lee's obituary. I am so sorry to read about his passing. He was one of only a few people in the patrol I knew I could count on and had by back. He was my mentor and friend. I will forever remember you and him in Miami, St. Augustine, and Lakeland. you and him both were great friend to me and Debby. If you are up to it, please give me a call sometime. 540-246-4077
