Lee was a loving, devoted, and dedicated father first and foremost. Lee was a single parent who was blessed with the help of an amazing “village”. He treasured spending time with his children/grandchildren/great-grandchildren. He was an enthusiastic fishermen, amazingly skilled gardener, and die-hard Dallas Cowboys and Arkansas Razorbacks fan. He and his best-friend, La-Rae, would never miss a game. Lee was world-renowned for his lack of patience, not holding back his opinion, and very wittingly telling it like it was . He was also the neighborhood Dad to many. The house was always full of love, with laughter or loud lecturing. Lee will be missed by so many. Funeral services will be held Friday, May 6, 2022, 11:00am, Pilgrim Valley Baptist Church, 1821 South Wolfe Street. The family will receive friends Thursday, May 5, 2022 from 5-7pm at the funeral home. Due to    Covid-19 a facial mask is required.
