I had the pleasure of meeting Mr. Lee's family at the hospital in Richmond while my husband was there. We had met his niece Betty Hudgins and the love and prayers they showered on us in our time of illness is returned with heartfelt condolences for their loss. You all will be in our thoughts and prayers.

My sincere condolences to the Family. Had not seen Lee in years. My brother used to work with
Lee at Orkin and I knew him from years back.
My best wishes to you all in your time of sorrow.
