Family, Sorrow for your lost.
“To be absent from the body
Is to be present with the Lord”
Be encourage each passing Day.
Hold on to God unchanging hand.

This is why you were on my mind yesterday. I'm so sorry for your loss. My heart and prayers are with you and your family.

Sending prayers and condolences to the entire Lee family.

Mr. Lee you will truly be missed and thank you so very Much for always watching over our girls when they attended Freedom High. They had so much respect for you. Rest peacefully Mr. Lee! Sending our deepest condolences to your entire family❤

When I was feeling suicidal he took me out of my class and had an hour long conversation before he took me to my counselor then I got taken to a mental hospital. I never got to thank him. If he didn't have that conversation with me I probably wouldn't be here today. So thank you for everyone you've done for me Mr Lee. You were a great mentor to me ever since I came into high school.

I love you my brother!
Rest In Peace!

Mr. Lee you were/ are FREEDOM HIGH SCHOOL. Your presence is missed by every one. We stand in your legacy.

Chantelle and Family,

Words can’t explain how heartbroken I was to hear about the passing of Vernon. One of the most amazing human beings GOD ever created!! A true Angel that was taking away from us to soon!! We appreciate the love and kindness he shared with us while he was here. Vernon will be missed by so many people, but never forgotten!! May God bless you and your family during this difficult time!!

Much Love,

Carlton

I knew Coach Lee from from R E Lee high school. He was always able to relate to the kids so well. He knew when to make us laugh, and when to give us tough love. Either way he got us to play hard for him. He had a big influence on many of us and will truly be missed.
