Aunt Jean, Jennifer and family, as you know Lee and I were close and worked together, surveying, for several years. I am glad that I visited with him in the hospital two weeks ago. One of the last things he said was that he felt that we were more like brothers and cousins. He got the last word in, something humorous, as I left the room with tears in my eyes. It is good that he did not linger in pain any longer than two weeks. He will be remembered fondly by all who knew him, as tell-it-like-it-is, honest guy 😉

Jennifer and family, Lee was one of the kindest souls I have ever known. He fought the good fight in his daily life and he gave cancer a truly incredible fight! We will miss him so much but I KNOW, he is WITH OUR LORD!
Please know he was loved and respected by so many! No truer Patriot and no more faithful brother and friend!
God bless you ALL as God holds Lee in his very own hands for ETERNITY,
Condolences to the Eppler family. Our thoughts and prayers go out to your whole family. Psalms 147:3 says God, “heals the broken hearted, and binds up their wounds.” May God bring you comfort and peace.
Dear Jean,
I just read about your beloved son’s passing. My heartfelt condolence to you. I am so sorry.
Let me hear from you soon.
Love you.
