Not sure what to say?

I first met Dana and Keith many years ago when our sons were on the same travel baseball team. As I got to know Dana, she told me about her health issues that started for her as a teenager. I was very impressed with her tenacity and upbeat attitude. She and Keith raised two fine sons. Becky and I always felt welcome when we came by for a visit. It is so unfortunate she passed so young. My sincerest condolences to Keith, Kory and Travis.

My kids and myself will always remember time spent with Dana and Keith. Rest in peace Dana.

Dear Keith, Kory and Travis, I am so very very sorry to hear of Dana's passing. It breaks my heart. Dana was invincible! With all the health issues that she faced throughout her life she would "just keep swimming". Her perseverance was admirable to say the least. She was fun, spunky and her laugh was contagious I can hear it now. I have many fond memories growing up with her from the 1st grade all the way through high school and after. I especially loved seeing her in recent pictures...

So very, very sorry over Dana's passing, she will be forever missed.

Keith, Kory and Travis, truly heartbroken to hear Dana Lee passed away so suddenly and way too soon! I love you all so much and will cherish all the wonderful and loving times we had together. Rest in Peace Dana Lee. I love you always.
