Dear Joann and family,
So sorry to read about Lee's passing. It was nice seeing both of you at Miller's Mkt for lunch when I worked at the post office. Lee was a great help during our annual benefit festival's for Dream Come True. Lee helped organize the Old Time Plow Boys tractor pulls at the benefit festivals for many years.
Lee also farmed the fields behind the drive in while my father was alive. He will be remembered for his hard work and for volunteering at our benefit festivals. My you find comfort by remembering the good times you shared with Lee while he was alive.

Lee, my first boyfriend! Very good memories of our school years together will keep him alive in my heart. May the Lord bless you with wonderful memories of this hard working man. His life brought much grief but he was a soldier through it all. Joann, you and the girls made many memories with Lee. 51 years of marriage is a giant achievement. Love to you all and may Lee enjoy the peace of a better life in heaven.
