August 3, 1939-March 29, 2022

It is with Love and heavy hearts that we announce the passing of a beloved spouse, father, uncle, grandfather and great-grandfather. Lee passed peacefully away on Tuesday March 29, 2022 with his Love Gaye by his side.

Lee worked at Hydro for many years where he travelled all over Newfoundland and met some wonderful people who became friends. He was a great story teller that would have you listening and laughing and sometimes even crying to his many experiences and moments in his life. He had a great love for the outdoors, fishing, hunting, skidooing and time at the cabin with friends and family. He loved his family unconditionally and would not hesitate to sacrifice for their needs. You will live forever in our hearts through all the loving memories.

“If Teardrops we Pennie’s and heartaches were gold”
