Lee Poole Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers from May 10 to May 13, 2015.


Our darling Lee passed away a few days ago.

Many of you knew him as a close friend, a fishing and hunting partner, a masterful and captivating story teller, and even a caring and loving boss.

We knew him as a wonderful father, grandfather, brother, and a loving husband to his wife of 47 years. We knew him as Lee Lee, Poppa, Lammie, and Dad.

His sense of humor was immeasurable. His joy for life immense. His love for his fellow man was universal. He was to all a visionary, a mentor and a role model, a generous and unselfish giver. He taught us what life is about. He believed in people and as a result they became better human beings. We will never forget him.

Lee is survived by his wife, Lathie; daughter, Leesa (Tim) Anderson; son, Tracy (Shawna) Poole; grandchildren, Cooper and Anelise Anderson, Christian and Laur'en Poole, Kelsie and Trever Roberts.

We will honor his life on Saturday, May 16 at 2 p.m. at Grace Bible Church on 19th and Stucky in Bozeman.

Arrangements are in the care of Dokken-Nelson Funeral Service. www.dokkennelson.com
