R.I.P. Ed Lee, I have known you since I was a young girl and you will be truly missed. You brightened the day for many especially your children. My prayers and condolences go out to your family and friends. You could be funny when you wanted and you never could sing although you tried often. Your laugh was one that I will never forget. We all love you and will miss you dearly. May God blessed you as you go home to be with the Lord. Love, Neci
