I just found out about Lee’s passing today.  I have known Lee for about 40 years.  He was an amazingly strong person, always upbeat and faithful to his beliefs through the hardest of times.  Lee was always an inspiration and joy. to me and all who were fortunate to know him as a friend.  My heart is sad for me, but I know he has moved on to the next phase of his journey.  God bless to my dear friend.

Lee was the man's man. He loved each of us the way Jesus did. He was kind and such a example to live like. He was the loving grandfather to my children that they needed in their life. God has you Lee and I am jealous.

Lee and Char met my husband and I 28 years ago. They loved us, discipled us in our walk with Jesus and have been our friends all these years. Loving us in spite of our " new Christian" slip ups, our crazier than normal schedule that we followed and the constant needs of our family. Thanks to the US Navy, but they stood by no matter what. Most importantly Praise God for these two wonderdul, caring people who loved us, became our children's God Parent's and stood by us through thick and very thin. Lee was such a great brother in Christ and I am so thankful that God chose him for us. Love you Char! Love you to Lee's sisters too! You have stood with them and I am grateful. Will miss you my dear friend. Miss your devotionals, miss your guidance and strength. Rest in the arms of Jesus, until we meet again. 

My name is Renee' and I used to work for Dr.Mercandetti and Dr.Khehar and I remember Earl as 1 of my favorite patients and always had a smile as he would walk into my office...Thank you for being so sweet and kind to Me...Sending love and hugs and most of all prayers to the Family during this difficult time..

Carol Carnes Olsen and I have been friends since I was born. Her brother Lee was in my life until he got out of high school. He was like an older brother to me. Even though I haven't seen him in 50 years, my heart hurt for my friend at losing her brother. I cried because a good man was taken from his family. My thoughts, prayers and hugs go out to his family and my sister/friend Carol!!
