What a beautiful woman inside and out! She will be missed by so many including our family! She was kind and thoughtful to all! There wasn’t a softball game that I’m aware of that she missed when my daughter Tiffany played softball that her son Howard and the other great coaches that did a wonderful job coaching!
Also all the city ball when city ball; football and Mrs Lee coached Cheerleading which my daughter Tiffany was a part of!
We were blessed to know her! To me she was a true inspiration and example what a Christian is to be!!
My condolences to her beautiful family and all of you are during this difficult times and beyond
Love all of you ❤❤
