My sincere sympathy to the family. It is a blessing Clodagh lived long life because there are many people who may never see her age. May Almighty God who provide comfort to us (2 Cor 1:3) be with you during this difficult time of your life.

Mrs. Lee was always so sweet and nice every time I saw her. She loved to ask how tall I was. I believe she lived a long and meaningful life and left her mark in this world. Her granddaughter Hilary is one of my best friends and without Mrs Lee I would have never met her. So for that I'm thankful.

My fondest memories of Clodagh include catching fireflies in the driveway in Newport News and eating wonderful pound cake in Raleigh. She had a kind and generous heart, a great laugh, and such sweet devotion to her family.

The Lees were our neighbors in Newport News and we all grew up together. Mrs. Lee always had fresh veggies from the garden which she gave out as snacks for the kids. Loved her fresh cucumbers! She will always be remembered for her kind and loving spirit. May God bless her and keep her, always.
