Family, Friends & Fellow Officers Remember...

It's hard to believe its been 36 years today. I still remember all you taught me. You never got to see your nephew Bobby, he was born 1 month after you left us. You knew he was to be named after you and I thing you would be proud of him, Denise & Kim remember you coming over and coloring and playing with them. You were a wonderful brother and uncle and a very special man to us all. I have a lot of special memories and I'm so proud to call you brother.

Although my Uncle went to be with the Lord 14 months and 4 days before I came to be, my Uncle Bobby has forever played an active role in my life. Through the years my mother and others have spoke of him often. There has not been one family event where he has not been mentioned. Stories and memories that will live forever in me and that of which I am already passing down to my children, one of which I have named after my uncle. He loved his family, the people around him and being a police officer. He was a son, a brother, an uncle, a Marine, and a friend that could always be counted on. He loved life and lived it to the fullest. Uncle Bobby, you will forever be in my heart.

I was just a little girl when my Uncle Bobby left my world. I remember him clearly and the influence he played in my life. My best memory of my Uncle was our snowcone and icey days. I could always count on when ever I saw him he would slip me away to 7-11 to treat me. He was so playful and always made me feel safe & important. I miss you everyday Uncle Bobby. I have always had great respect for you and admired your courage. As growing up Mama has never let us forget you and the man that you were. I'm proud to be your niece.

This is my Uncle Bobby. I was only a child when he left us, but he is still very much a part of my life. I am his oldest neice and I remember him spoiling me. He left his mark on me - I am a better person because of his love of family, integrity, sense of humor, and honor. I am so proud of him. I miss you so much. When I had a school speech to give about my heritage. Everyone told me "well, you have Cherokee, Irish, German", etc. Uncle Bobby took me in the back room and told me the best advice anyone could have given me - "You tell them that you are an American!" and I did. I have never forgotten that and I will never forget him.

Officer Lee was my Grandmother's son, my mother's brother, my Uncle, and a good friend to many other people in and outside of the Houston Police Department. He helped name me on May 27, 1970 and past away on January 31, 1971. I love to hear all of the stories about my Uncle Bobby. He was a wonderful man and a brave Police Officer. He is missed by everyone who knew him. I love you Uncle Bobby.
