I'm so, so sorry @Gerry. Your devotion to Lee and thoughtfulness in keeping us updated here, with humor and grace, were very much appreciated by me. Thank you.
I just found out about Lee’s passing through a Facebook post. I have not visited the skating forums for sometime. I feel very sad. I never met Lee. I didn’t know her, except through this thread and the updates, which I used to follow, but not recently.
It was as if I knew Lee. I knew of her struggle, her fight. I got to know Gerry- his devotion, perseverance, patience and love for Lee. Gerry, I am very sorry for your (whole family’s) loss. Words are inadequate at this time but please accept my deepest condolences. May Lee Rest In Peace. May you all find the strength to get through this difficult time.
My sympathies to you and your family. Not only did she fight hard, but Gerry, you showed us and her what an exceptional soul you are. In sickness and in health...you did good.
I am so sad. Lee was a wonderful person in so many ways, and her strength and determination showed in how she faced her illness. My heart is breaking for you @Gerry and for the kids and grandkids. Others have said the same thing, but you always have a community to support you here at FSU.
What sad news. May @Gerry, @pat c and all of Lee's many friends and family find comfort as you grieve your loss, and may Lee's spirit always be with you.
Sending you hugs and my deepest sympathy. @Gerry, I'm so glad to hear you were able to be with Lee at the end. Your love and presence inspires us all to be better people. Rest in peace, Lee.
I am so sorry to hear that Lee lost her battle after fighting so long and so hard.
She was always a bright light in a dark world. My sincere condolences to Gerry, who loved her so, and to @pat c, who was always her good and stalwart friend.
I'm very sorry to hear this. I met Lee back in 2013 at Boston Worlds, and besides figure skating, we talked about genealogy, as Lee has some NB roots. My sympathies to Gerry and family, and all Lee's friends, especially pat c.
((((Gerry and family)))) ((((pat c and FSU friends))))
I'm so very sorry, Gerry. Somehow it seemed sure that your faithful, heroic love, Lee's endless battle, and even the unfailing support of her medical team(s) would be rewarded in this life. I hope it comforts you and your family to know that she was deeply loved through the whole struggle, and knew it.
Thank you, Gerry, and Lee, for showing me what a loving marriage can be even under the greatest of tests. It was a privilege. God bless you. May Lee rest now, and may the perpetual light shine upon her.
@Gerry I am so sorry for your loss, I enjoyed talking online to Lee and in the early days telling me of your daughters skating. She was a lovely lady. You have had such a roller coaster these past few years, sending ((hugs)) your way.
Such sad news to see tonight. Sending lots of love and prayers of comfort to Gerry, pat c, and the rest of her loved ones. She was such a special lady and she will be missed by so many people. RIP.
