Kathy, Pat, and family: I was saddened to hear of the passing of my first cousin, Eddie Lee. I know we haven’t done a very good job of keeping in touch; however, I will always remember Eddie, Gary, and Pat as those cousins that would come to visit Granny Chamberlain and we would all go to her house in Leadwood to eat, visit, and make memories together. I am sorry that we won’t be able to attend the memorial service or burial for Ed; however, please know that we are sending hugs, love, and lots of prayers to each of you during this difficult time.
