Dear Pam ~ I have been wondering about the all the cars in the driveway this week and my heart dropped when I just went online to Fremont obituaries.. Will never forget our wonderful chats about The Lord and you two always made me feel so welcome into your home. I am across the street if you need me. Hugs and Prayers..

Pam, Cathy and family,
My sincere condolences to you. I am so sorry to hear of Lee's passing.
I know that Lee will be dearly missed, but he will never be forgotten. Lee was a true servant and shining light for God, family, friends, and his community. Lee loved the Lord, and served his God well. We who remain behind will never know (this side of Heaven) the extent of the impact that Lee had or number of souls that won to Christ. In God's time, that too will be revealed to us.
Peace be with you. God assures us that will someday be reunited with family and friends in Heaven.

Cathy and Pam,
So sad to hear about Lee's passing. What a great loss. He was such a good man. He had such integrity that was evident when he was a young boy and always helped the one in need. I know as I experience his caring when I first met him in grade school. Praying for your families as you go through this difficult time. At least we know he is at peace with our Heavenly Father.
