Thanks for always finding me in church to give me candy. It made me and my sister feel special and it was a really sweet thing to do. You will be missed.

Lee's family:
I enjoyed many fishing and hunting trips with Lee in the late 60's and 70's. He was always the humor guy in our group. He brought joy to those who were lucky enough to know him. My thoughts are with the family and his many friends.

Lee was my neighbor all my young life and I will never forget that EVERY time he'd come over to my Daddy's shop he would reach into his pocket, a smile would grace his face, and he would pull out a Worther's Original candy! My 2 sons, Brandon & Ryan remember him popping the top on an IBC root beer and treating them to something special! We'd ask then, "where'd you get that?" and they'd smile and say FROM LEE! we will miss the candy Christmas trains, his devotion to the Seminoles, driving the dog crazy, and of course the squirrels that most certainly belong to him ;)He will be truly missed.

Dear Virginia and family,

Lee was a "good ole boy" (as he would say) and it was a pleasure to work for him and serve under him. He taught me a lot when I worked for him. He had my deepest respect.

He will be greatly missed. My condolences go to you and the family on this time of loss.

Vicki Peterson-Steckel, formerly of HHC 53 Infantry Brigade
