Fay and family,
Debbie and I were sadden to hear of the loss of Lee. We have many fond memories of growing up together. Over the past years, we didn't see each other much, but when we did we had some good laughs talking about our child hood stupidities (of which there were many). Our prayers and thoughts are with you. Steve, Deb Lyman and family

Remember baby sitting for both Lee and Gary. Leo and Leta paid well and she always insisted that I eat the goodies she left for me. Always inquired about the boys and kept up with some of their lives while Bob and Shirley were living. Saw Gary a few times over years and also Leo and Leta. My sympathy to all of you on your loss. These sudden deaths are especially difficult so will keep you in my prayers a bit longer.
