I will miss cousin "Tootie." We had so much fun growing up together and sharing all the family celebrations and holiday dinners (especially afterward, washing the mountains of dishes in the kitchen with Karen & Gary). We would snap each other with wet towels and laugh, sing & dance and just be silly - till we all got in trouble! Those were the days, we all miss our Lee cousins; Tootie, Karen, Gary & Kathy. Let's hope they're all together laughing & being silly again.
