Thank you Lee for allowing me to share a small portion of your life with you. I am truly blessed for knowing you and you will forever live in my heart. I will never look at a small waffle maple walnut cone ever the same again, as a matter of fact, I won't even look at it, I will eat it, and think of you! :) My heartfelt condolences to all who knew Lee and will miss her presence in our lifes.
Sincerely with Love,
Cheryl
