A good family friend died today. I tried, as an admin, to put his name "In Memory" but a list of already deceased Lions came up. So, could you please add this: Fred Andrew Lee, Jr. class of 1962; died 4/5/10 in Huntsville, Al. due to brain cancer. He is survived by Martha (Mary Ann) Chappell Lee class of 1963; sister, Maryla Kathryn Lee, class of 1966; sister, Deborah Lee and a son, Paul Andrew Lee. Four grandchildren. I will forward the obituary to you either tomorrow or the next day, as soon as I get it.
Thank you so much.
