He then moved his family to Missouri in 1971 when he specialized in Trim Carpentry. Lee had many hobbies, but he mainly loved the outdoors. He was always active doing something whether it was gardening, building homes, snow-skiing, jet skiing, boating, or taking canoe trips, but mainly spending time with his family.
Lee loved life and lived it to the full. He was the most kindhearted, loving, humble and sincere man who will be greatly missed.
