Sending my sympathy to the family regarding the passing of Junnie. His jovial spirit will truly be missed. I still remember as a kid when my father Vernon Lee would visit the Filhiols off of Philpotts I always looked forward to hearing Junnie sing or laughing at his witty jokes.

I am so sorry to hear about Leroy. We loved him so much. After closing the High Point stores we hardly saw the guys. Mr Ben would give us updates when he could. I called Linda Tripp and this was very difficult news. Please know how much Leroy held a special place in our hearts.
