Later in life she met the man of her dreams, Gene White, and spent a glorious 54 years with him and their blended family, until his passing in 2016. Her favorite thing in the world was having a house full of people. Any excuse to have a barbecue or full house, she was in! She embodied everything magnificent and beautiful in this world! She was Love and Acceptance. She was gracious, gentle, selfless, and welcoming to everyone. She cherished family and was everyone’s friend. Mrs. Lee was a devoted wife, mother, grandmother, and great grandmother. She always accepted and respected everyone, regardless of their troubles. She loved purely and genuinely. She was perfect.
