I met Lee the day she brought Jim to the Lutheran Home. She stayed by his side each day from morning til evening. She would play music for him and try to give him coffee to drink. She lovingly attended to him. I learned a lot by watching her spend her days with him. She loved her family and talked about the wonderful days she had with Jim. After Jim passed away she missed him so much but her strong faith her going. Now they will are together again. She longed for that time. I loved her and will miss her.
