I love you and think you are up there smiling down on us. Lee you were and are loved. You always have had family and not just by blood. Loyalty is where the heart is. You were a great friend and cousin.You had a personality that drawn people to you. You would say stuff just to make people laugh. You always let people knew you cared. I'm gonna miss you. When I think of you I will think of all the times that you made me laugh or the good memories of childhood I had growing up around you. Rip....gone but you will never be forgotten <3

I love you and hope you are looking down on us smiling. Lee you were and are loved. You had family and not just by blood. Loyalty is where the heart is. You were a great cousin, friend and person all around. Rip cousin you are gone but never forgotten. When I think of you I will remember all the times you said something to make me laugh or some of the funny memories of growing up around you. You could always make someone's day that seemed bad a lot brighter.
