Dear Lea Family Members,
I met your Father through a Cousin and on LSU Game Day, we would visit and talk about the different games. I'd bring him a Banana Cream Pie Shake from the Sonic and his caretaker would always ask if he wanted to eat it then or wait a while. His reply, what am I going to wait for. I'll miss our little visits.
God Bless you All.

Growing up at First Baptist Church I felt Mr. & Mrs. Lea had an influence in our lives as Christian role models. Even in adulthood, Mr. Lea still made his way across the church to speak to me and express interest in my family. What a void there will be because of his absence. But what an honor we all had to have crossed paths.
