To the family of Lee, I just wanted to share my experience w/Lee. I worked at a local bank and any time lee came in he would always pop his head in my office just to say hi. He lived his life in such a happy and positive way, I always looked forward to seeing him. You could tell that he was always appreciative of people and life. I had a lot of respect for Lee just for being the person he was. It has been a couple of years since I’ve seen Lee, but his character will stick with me forever. My prayers to all his family. "What a wonderful man". Rick jordan
