Dear Linda, Nina, and Families,
I am so sad to hear of Aunt Lee's death. Though I hadn't talked to her in a good while, I always enjoyed talking to her by phone. She was always a wealth of information about the family, and she always had at least one great story to tell! She told me about how much she loved taking care of her flowers and plants. She talked about you and Walter a great deal and told me how wonderful you were to her. She also talked about Nina and Patsy and their families. She loved all of you so much! Please know that you are in my thoughts and prayers.
Love to you all,
Shirley

My prayers are with all of you. I always admired Lee so much.She was so independent and strong and always had the time to sit and chat with you with that special twinkle in her eye.May the peace that only God can give you help you during this time. The table at Shoney's will always be hers. With much love.
