There are so many good memories of you and Jan
at Christmas, Thanksgiving, Easter, and just
having a gathering at our house. I'm so glad we
continued to share these moments after Jan left
us. You were not only a dear friend but family.
I will miss our messaging on facebook and all
the phone calls back and forth. You were such a
nice person and loved by us all. We will miss
you so much but one day we'll all be together
again, just as You and Jan are now. I can only
imagine your reunion with her in Heaven. Really
gonna miss you, our buddy !!!
To The Family,
Our THOUGHTS & PRAYERS are with each of you at
this very difficult time !!

Lee we will miss you soooomuch.Your phone calls
and the visits.Gene said after you passed away
I will miss us calling each other so much.Our
vacation at Daytona Beach and the good times we
had there.All of christmas dinners and
Thanksgiving dinner.You are in a better place
now and no more suffering.We will see you again
one day.
We are so very sorry for your loss! Feelings of despair can be
overwhelming at this time. We pray that “the Father of tender
mercies, and the God of all comfort” (2 Corinthians 1:3, 4) will
give you peace of mind and comfort in your hearts. Acts 24:15
says that “there is going to be a resurrection” and Job 14:14,
15 shows that God has a longing to resurrect his friends! We
are so grateful that our loving God looks forward, as much as
we do, to reuniting us with our loved ones.

Leroy,I'll always remember your laugh and the way
you communicated.I can still remember all the
places you and Janice lived in the Quad Cities. I
loved your little dog Rastus. I know it must've
been hard after Janice passed but now you two are
together again. I'm glad I got to go to breakfast
with you last time I was in Johnson City. We are a
blessed family to have so many wonderful
Aunts,Uncles,Cousins and Friends.For now, as the
song says, go rest high upon that mountain.
Growing up Aunt Jan and Uncle Leroy were part of
our immediate family in Illinois. I will never
forget his baptism into babysitting us four kids
while Jan and our parents attended a funeral in
Tennessee. Biscuits took on a new look and
meaning. We shared a lot of family dinners and
memories and Uncle Leroy will be missed. My
prayers and condolences are sent to his famiiy.
