Eulogy written by my cousin Lynn.
Uncle Lee was a beloved Husband, Father, Grandfather, Brother and Uncle. I don't usually give speeches, but Uncle Lee gave so much to all of us I wanted to give back to him.
He's touched so many lives, including mine. I lived with Uncle Lee and aunt Joan 3 times; he was always there for me no matter what no questions asked.
My sister wrote something today that rang so true, she said Uncle Lee is her hero and one of the best men she ever knew. She is absolutely right. We all know him humor, contagious smile and laugh that always made everyone laugh. Let's not forget his favorite name for all of us "TOOTSY". Uncle Lee and Aunt Joan were not just an uncle and aunt, but my second parents. He will truly be missed incredibly so, and his legacy will forever live on. Rest in Peace Uncle Lee we love you very much. You're in a much better place.
