Nee Family, I'm so sorry to hear about the loss of your husband/father. My parents always spoke so fondly of him. We are vacationing out of the country currently, otherwise I would've been to the funeral home. Take care of yourselves and hold on to the memories. Gabriella Coury Ben

To the entire Nee family:

You are in my thoughts and prayers.
