Hello everyone,
I just found out about the website, I would've written sooner. I was saddened to hear of Lee's passing. She was always so nice to me when she and Dick would visit Nana's. I have good memories of our days there, Lee being a gentle part of them. It's been a very difficult year for all our families, but, I know God gives us the grace to remember our loved ones, and then, strength to move on. I will keep your family in my prayers. God bless you all, Kathy

Dick, Richard, Paul, Laura and Uncle Leo,

When I was told about Lee my heart sank. She alway's made me feel so good about myself from when I was a young boy to the man I am today.
I don't think I can ever hear the song "Hey good lookin', what ya....." without thinking of her.

She just alway's made me feel so good about myself.

Our deepest sympathy for your loss.

Dear Dick, Uncle Leo, Paul, Richey and Laurie,

The first thing that comes to my mind when I think of Lee is her beautiful warm smile and this quote:

People will forget what you say, but they will never forget how you made them feel. Lee was always so kind, genuine and had a heart of gold and will be truly missed.


My deepest sympathy to you all.

Hugs,
Cousin Fudge

Dear Dick,
I am so sorry for your loss. Lee was a wonderful lady though I didn't see her often. I just lost my dad a week ago and know the pain you are feeling. Keep the faith - the Lord will take care of you!

Dick, I want to extend my sincere sympathy to you in your loss of your loving wife, "Lee". Although I didn't know her a long time, our trips together with Ann and Lorry to the Christmas Tree Shops will always remain a happy memory. She was a very kind and generous person. I am happy to say that I knew her.
