I’m not sure where to begin, it all started in 1969 when a Ford Mustang and a Mercury Cougar went out to Rte. 295 to see who had the fastest car in town. That was the day Lee and I became life long friends. Yes, Lee was ALWAYS there when you needed him, a true friend to the end. Chuck and Mary, I am so sorry for your loss but want you to remember Jesus words at Matthew 6:10 “Let your kingdom come; (to the earth) and Revelation 21:3&4 “death will be no more”. Lee, my dear friend, until we meet again, you are in my prayers. Dick (Stickles) Hutchins
