Lee was one of the most kind and generous women I have known in my life. It’s difficult to think of a world that she’s no longer part of. Her smile, her voice, her presence was always a welcome part of the day. I just can’t find the words to describe how much I will miss her. At least my last words to her were, “I love you.”
