Read MoreLee was always so funny to visit with and I enjoyed getting to know her through the pharmacy. I know she was heart broken when she lost Larry and depended on her little Lacy to get her through his passing. It was just more then she could bare losing that little pup. My thoughts and prayers are with you all. She loved a great hug--giving and receiving them.
