My friend Lee. One of the very best men I've ever known.
God bless you for all the love you gave to everyone. People always felt loved in your presence.
You also showed me what a true gentleman is. The love you have with your wife is beautiful and inspirational.
You don't even know the lives that you changed just by being you.
There's no doubt that you have met Jesus and you are smiling and happy.
I pray for your family, I love them so

Lee was so loved by all the workers and customers at the Mt Juliet post office. He was a friend to all.
RIP, my friend. You fought a long hard fight!
Ellen
In the unfortunately short time we knew each other you showed me love, kindness and a terrific sense of humor. In your honor I will strive to be as caring and gracious as you little brother.
