Lee was a wonderful neighbor. The second night in our new home (next to hers) she surprised us with pizza, pop and a card. It said "welcome to the neighborhood". She definitely made my family feel welcome. Sherie & family

I am so very sad to see of Lee's passing, she was such a wonderful person, a terrific cook and very kind hearted woman. She was so very proud of her family. My deepest sympathy to her family.
