Edward Holcombe Obituary
Lee served in the Air Force, stationed in Minot, ND where he would travel across the Canadian border on the weekends and met the love of his life, Anne-Marie. They have two daughters who were raised in a home filled with love, music and sports.
Lee retired from IBM and enjoyed his years watching his daughters excel in their careers and his grandchildren grow up. Lee was larger than life and has a lasting mark on those he met.

Ann, so sorry to hear that Lee is gone, my condolences. Both my husband Mark & I worked with Lee out on the Product Test floor. We also played volleyball with you two in an IBM league way back in the late 80's. After you moved to Oregon, we got together once in Tigard while we were visiting my daughter going to college at Willamette. We ate at a very good Thai place, as I recall. Mark is gone now, too, but I will remember Lee and his big smile and love of life.

Ann,
So sorry to hear about Lee.
Remember when we were in the hospital together with Sandy Simmons in labor? You both had your baby, and both were sent to Denver. My labor stopped and went home the next morning, for another couple weeks.
Have thought of that often. My sympathy to you and family.

Lee was a work associate and good friend. I am very shocked and sad to learn he died. My last visit with him was when I was in Tigard, Oregon during a college trip for my daughter.
