In 2011, just four months after they began dating, Lee was diagnosed with Stage 2 colon cancer. A year and a half later, 17 days after their honeymoon, they learned that Lee’s cancer had spread to his liver; he was now Stage 4. Through numerous surgeries, chemotherapy infusions and assorted other treatments, Linda has been by his side.
These years have also brought Lee & Linda great joy as they watched their children graduate college, get engaged and get married. They’ve also brought them two wonderful grandsons. Despite cancer, Lee and Linda say unequivocally these have been the best years of their lives.
Lee and Linda live in Florida with their Westie Terrier, Fergie.
