I was on the beach that day. I'm a mother of two boys myself. Don't know if it's wrong to post since I don't know his family. But I'm so very sorry for the loss. I think about him often,and he will forever be in my heart. My deepest prayers go to his family. Terrie L. Nash

I am so sorry that you have lost someone who was just in the beginning of his own "family life". My brother died at 24 and my family still talks about him as if he were still amongst us......keep Lee alive by sharing your memories with others. (I don't know your family but I was very moved by the obituary and feel your pain.)

My thoughts and prayers are with Olivia, Chelsea and her family and Jean Brackins and her family along with Lee's father. I had the pleasure of meeting Lee on several occasions while working with Jean and he was such a bright young man. The one thing I knew for sure about Lee was that he loved to surf. I'm sure he will be missed by many. God Bless all of you.
