We know he is enjoying his homemade peach ice cream with many friends in heaven! Love you Lee! Strength and prayers to Sandra and family❤️
Never have I met such an honorable man. Lee lived in God’s word. He was an inspiration to everyone blessed to know him. My heart breaks for us left behind but, for Lee, his joy is Neverending. Well done, good and faithful Servant. I loved him like a father. I cherished him as my elder and rascal friend. The world will have an empty spot where Lee stood proudly. I cannot wait to see him again. My thoughts and prayers are with all of us, especially Lee’s family, who all loved him so deeply.
Lost one of the good ones. Sandra, you are in our prayers.
We met Lee after we joined the church. We learned that he liked going out to eat and had a great sense of humor. Rest in peace in God’s arms. God be with you Sandy
