Joe, Mike, David and Louise:
My family is grateful for the friendship that Joe and Lee have expressed over and over. As young children, Hazel and Violet reminisce about eating peeled apples in Lee’s kitchen; and Caleb and Vivian recall their Trick or Treat journeys starting in her living room. For Claudia and I, having Joe and Lee as neighbors for several years was a blessing – always a helping hand, always a welcoming smile. Thank you.
While we are sad to lose Lee. We are relieved that she has found lasting peace. We hope that each of you will be comforted by your fondest memories of Lee in the days ahead.
Respectfully,
Greg Haggerty
