My heart both soars and is burdened at the same time at Bro. Lee's going home. It soars knowing he will never suffer again and is home with those loved ones gone home but it is burdended knowing I will never look upon his smiling face again. Bro. Lee was the most humble, loving and kind man I ever met and this hard, mean world is a little darker without his light in it. I'm honored and blessed that I had the opportunity to know such a gentle man and faithful Christian.

I am very sorry for your loss. I was a previous neighbor and friend of Lee's when he lived on Sunnycrest Drive. He was a very nice person and very neighborly and it was a pleasure living next to him. I was previously married to the grandson of his landlord he had when he lived on Sunnycrest. God Bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

Just wanted to say I really thought the world of lee. If I was having a bad day when I took him to Dialysis he would always ask me what's wrong is there anything I can do to help. Lee was a wonderful Christian Man.
