First met Lee when I came to Memphis is 2000 to work load control for Northwest Airlines.He trained me on local procedures for the office. He was always very good at his work but also could share a laugh with you.So sorry to hear of Lee’s passing and we send condolences to Vicki and all of Lee’s family. We pray that God will bring you comfort in the days ahead. Gary and Donna Vickery

Goodbye little brother. I love you!
I met Lee working in load control in Detroit. My husband had an opportunity to meet George Harrison and Carl Perkins in London. Lee had never met Bernie but I was sure they would be great friends. Lee was going to be on vacation and I couldn’t go so I asked Lee if he would like to join him on the trip. Lee was an important part of one of the greatest memories of our lives. I will always be thankful that Bernie had such a great friend to share it with. Rest easy
Vicki we are so sorry to hear of Lee’s passing, I was just saying “I wonder how my buddy Lee is doing haven’t heard from him in awhile.” Lynne and I always enjoyed working with the both of you. Lee was always the best partner on the MBJ or CUN flights. Wishing you the best Fred and Lynne Gerhardt
I worked with Lee in both Nashville and Memphis and I am so sorry to hear of his passing. I pray for peace and comfort for the family during this time of great loss. Danny Grantham—Delta Air Lines Nashville
Lee was always great to work with at the airlines. Serious in his work, and quips to get you laughing. He and Vicki made such a great team. I miss him on the Fantasy Flights where he was our official photographer. His memorial service will be held the same afternoon as this years Flight. I know that our good Lord has welcomed him home.
