Note* Obituary:

Lois Dempsey Lee, 80, was lovingly received into the arms of her Heavenly Father on Saturday, Feb. 18, 2006, after a courageous battle with cancer.
Lois was born in Jodie on April 24, 1925, to the late Fred and Myrtle Dempsey. She and her family moved to Florida in 1963.
She retired from the U.S. civil service after 31 years of service, where she worked for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and the U.S. Air Force. Upon retirement, she resided in Strawberry Plains, Tenn., for eight years before returning to Florida in 1988.
Lois faithfully attended the First Baptist Church of Merritt Island, Fla. She loved her Lord with all her heart. She lived her faith; a life exemplified by acts of love for her family and for others.
Lois was very accomplished at needlework of all kinds, her quilts, cross-stitchery, and handmade garments were works of art. Lois also loved making her home beautiful, working diligently in her flowerbeds and making many of the decorations that graced her walls.
Her greatest accomplishments, however, were in sharing her love and faith with her family and friends. All who knew her loved her, and all will miss her immensely. Truly, the angels in Heaven are rejoicing. Our loss is Heaven's gain.
She is survived by her husband of 64 years, Nathan B. Lee; daughter, Rebecca Acuff of Cocoa, Fla.; sons, Danny (Joanne) of Spotsylvania, Va., Steve (Candy) of Merritt Island, Fla., Roger (Terri) of Orlando, Fla., and Timothy of Rockledge, Fla.; eight grandchildren, Michael, Brian, and Angie Acuff, Christi Cook, Sandi Homan, Mandi O'Brien, and Shawn and Danny McGee; eleven great-grandchildren; sister, Leona Mullins of Ansted; and brother, Lloyd Dempsey of Mount Lookout.
The family will receive friends from 5 to 7 p.m. Thursday, Feb. 23, at Wallace and Wallace Funeral Home in Ansted with a memorial service immediately following.
Graveside service and interment will be at Restlawn Memory Gardens in Victor on Friday, Feb. 24, 2006.
