Lee will be remembered for his quiet dedication and the steady presence he offered to those around him.
Lee was preceded in death by his father, Morgan Howell; mother, Sadie Butler Howell; brothers, M.L. Howell and Robert Howell; sister, Lucille Clifton Woodell; and mother-in-law, Maymie Dubois. Left to cherish his memory are his loving wife of 63 years, Nancy Dubois Howell, and their baby, Lil Red Howell of Haughton, LA; brother, Thomas” Buddy” Howell and wife, Billie Jean of Castor, LA, and Jimmy Howell and wife, Carolyn of Stonewall, LA; and sister, Ann Howell of New Castle, OK.
Honoring Lee as pallbearers will be Colby Howell, Lucas Howell, Blake Howell, Richard Willis, Craig Howell, and Tommy Ashburn. Serving as an honorary pallbearer will be Joseph Boots Clifton.
The family suggests memorials may be made to St. Jude Children’s Hospital, www.stjude.org.
