Lee was a courageous man! He loved his family with his whole being, accepted us all for who we are and became, I will miss all of the stories he shared over the 35 years I new him. We would sit in his favorite place for hours and look at the beauty of our mountains while drinking coffee. Lots of great memories for my years to come. Knowing he is at peace warms my heart. Praying for his family to find their courage and know he would want them to find peace. We will miss him much.
His loving sister inlaw
