To the Cook family

Lee was THAT CLASSMATE you'd never ever forget! That infectious smile and sly humor.....almost made him a borderline class clown who would never hurt a soul - lol. I could never imagined him having an enemy in this world.......
TW Josey Eagle85 classmates, schoolmates, teachers, coaches etc and I join you as we bid farewell to our dear Eagle Brother LEE NEAL COOK. May the LORD comfort & strengthen all who mourn and guide his SOUL on a Fantastic Voyage to GLORY for that Eternal Homecoming gathering of all of our dearly departed whom awaits him.

My deepest sympathies and condolences are with you as you grieve the loss of Lee Neal. We were classmates at T.W.

I am so sorry that he is no longer among us, but assured that he is in the presence of our Lord.

And we will carry you in spirit
Until we meet up once again.
