Lee was a wonderful, spirited and kind woman. She raised two wonderful children and gave back to her community through her dedicated and hard work as a public defender. I remember meeting her for the first time in about 1988 and how welcome she made me feel in her home...I remember thinking, "Wow, I wish my mom was this cool!" She was bright, caring, and an outstanding mother. I am honored to be friends with her son - a gem of a man and a gentleman in every sense of the word. That, I think, is her greatest legacy...

I knew Lee in my capacity as a Magistrate hearing Baker act placement cases in which she was appointed to represent the patients. Lee was a very compassionate advocate for her clients. She will be missed.
