Tom Lee - A Memphis Hero

Thank You!

I would like to start off by saying this is an adventure that I never thought I would endure in my lifetime. 

However, I did not realize how much this meant to my family until my father passed.  Upon reading his memoirs, I came across all of his work and effort he put in to making our great, great uncle known for what he has done for so many lives.  In 1998 I picked up where my father had left off, from that day on I have accepted and cherished my family’s history.

There are so, so many people that gave their time, effort and kind words on behalf of Tom Lee and this page is dedicated to them.  First of all I want to thank God without him none of this would be possible.   I want to thank my father (Herbert J. Neely) for his endurance to make this possible…today.

I want to thank my husband Eric for all of his never-ending support, my sister Carlita Neely for her persistence in making contact with anyone who would listen, and our extended family Neely, Burks, Watts & Cage.
