Memories and Condolences
for Danilo Lee

Dr. Danilo Lee was a superb, knowledgeable and highly educated internist and cardiologist, but more important a loving spouse, father, son, brother and caring friend. He treated my dad, Coleman James Carter, my mother-in-law, Peggy Lloyd, and myself. He was not only our doctor but also a family friend. When my dad passed away, Dr. Lee came to the funeral home and consoled and comforted all of us. The day he told me of his illness, I was devasted, not only for Dr. Lee but for his wonderful family, who he always spoke highly of during every visit. We would laugh and often times have intense political discussions. I will always cherish his friendship. To his wife Cora and children, Jennifer, Cathy and Daniel just always know how much he loved you and how proud he was of all of your accomplishments. You meant the world to him and he was always telling a great story about you. Thank you Lord for allowing Dr. Lee to have been a part of my life. My deepest sympathy to his family.

I was an employee of Dr. Lee for almost 17 years. Not only was he my employer, but he was a big brother, a father at times, and a best friend to me throughout the years. My heart broke when he had to retire and now it bleeds for Cora, Jennifer, Cathy, and Daniel (his lovely wife and children). Dr. Lee was surely loved and will be greatly missed by all who knew him. I send my love to his family. Vicki Lee

We were very blessed to have Dr. Lee as our parent's physician (Doris and Leonard Robey) and later as our own (Joyce Bunda and Janice Drew). He comforted my sister and I the day our Mom pasted away - I had not met Dr. Lee at that time and thought he was a priest/minister consoling my sister. After my Mom's death, Dr. Lee took care of my Dad even with my Dad's gruff personality. When my Dad pasted away he came to my Dad's funeral. What a kind and gentle man, I've never known any doctor to attend a patients funeral. We were greatly saddened when he retired. Nobody can replace Dr. Lee. He talked of his family often and was very proud of his children. Janice and I send our thoughts and prayers. Dr. Lee was one of a kind and I hope it makes your hearts a little less sad to know how much he was thought of and loved. God Bless.

My heartfelt sympathy goes out to Dr. Lee's family. Dr. Lee was my doctor for well over 20 years as well as the doctor for many of my family members.
Dr. Lee had alot of compassion towards his patients. He and I would always talk about photography and he always remembered to ask how my wife and son were doing.
Since Dr. Lee retired, I dread going to the doctors. R.I.P. Dr. Lee -- you will be sorely missed.
