Condolences

    Baldini Family: I just learned about Lee's passing. Please know that Lee is in my thoughts and prayers as is the entire Baldini family, especially Lee's brother, Nick and his family. I grew up with Nick, Larry and Lee in a house Nick Sr., built right across the street from their home. I was blessed to know the Baldini family, one of the finest families I have ever known. Hardly a day went by that we weren't playing together. It's with great sadness that I write this condolence, but I am also reminded of Jeremiah 1:5 "... I knew you, before you were born." I hope the Baldini family finds the same comfort I do, in knowing that Lee has returned to his heavenly home. May God bless Lee and the entire Baldini family. "Bobby" Northrop

    Rest in Paradise Lee. I've thought of you many times, over the years, and hoped you were having a good life. May God Bless you, and keep you, in His ever loving arms. ~Joey To Lee's family ~ "Nothing you love is lost. Not really. Things, people—they always go away, sooner or later. You can’t hold them, any more than you can hold moonlight. But if they’ve touched you, if they’re inside you, then they’re still yours. The only things you ever really have are the ones you hold inside your heart." ~Bruce Coville
