Lee Mitchell Edwards

Lee Mitchell Edwards, born on December 24, 1957, was taken too soon on November 21, 2022, at the age of 64. Lee was born in Fairfield, California, and relocated to Maine as a young man. He joined the United States Army and was stationed in Germany. After coming back to the United States he resided in  Missouri and remained there until his final move to Texas. Lee had many interests and hobbies, some of which included music by way of Jimmy Hendrix, basketball, motorcycles, and fishing. Lee was a genuine person with a large heart that cared deeply for friends and family, at times more than he was able to share.

Lee is survived by his children Nicole, Lisa, Justin, Leah and Russell, his sister Janis and brothers Michael and Paul.  Jason,  his youngest son, was taken too early in 2008. He was also preceded in death by his brother Dean and his mother Pamela.

The Family will hold a celebration of life in April. With a heart of gold, Lee is now resting in peace.
