A time for visitation will be from 12:30 p.m. to 1:00 p.m. prior to the service. Interment will follow at Yates Cemetery in Scottsville, Texas.

She was born on March 29, 1938, in Jonesville, Texas and passed away peacefully at home on Saturday morning, January 8, 2022, with her family by her side. Although heartbroken, we feel peace knowing that she ran faithfully and joyfully, straight into the arms of the Lord.

She lived a long and devoted life as a wife, mother, grandmother and great-grandmother. She will most certainly be remembered for how well she loved and served her family. She instilled beautiful values in her children and grandchildren and always reminded them to pray, show grace and have hope and peace in Jesus. Our "Nana" is so loved and will miss her greatly. We consider ourselves immensely blessed that we all experienced her love, care and kindness for as long as we did.

She is preceded in death by parents, Robert E. Lee and Mildred Lee; 4 brothers; and 2 sisters.
