    Phyllis,
    My deepest sympathy on your loss of Lee. I remember all the stories we shared about our boys
    when you would come into the beauty shop.
    If the future seems overwhelming, remember that it comes one moment at a time.

    Phyl, I loved Lee through your stories and knowing how much you loved him and he loved you. Please be proud of the Mom that you were to Lee and know how much he touched others lives. My prayers are with you and Lee’s other Mom, brother and sister, and his whole entire family. When the time is right to smile again when you think of him…..please know he is smiling back at you. Lee lived his life with others in mind and he was a genuine good man. All my love.

    I am so saddened by this news. Lee and I met as culinary students at Hocking College and that was the beginning of friendship that would have many adventures along the way. I have so many fond memories of him and to this day I continue to share “Cap” stories with others. He will be deeply missed by many and my sincerest condolences to his family and friends.

    I’ll miss ya brother!

    Sincerely,
    Tony Bommarito

    To Lee Capucini’s entire family, It is very hard to express condolences to anyone as words do not come easy. Knowing Lee, he would want a shout out because all pain and suffering is gone, so give a loud shout of praise when you feel the time is right. But it is our heart felt wish that we know the Good Lord will bring comfort and peace to each of you as you bring to mind all the wonderful memories you have. May God Bless all.

    My sincere condolences, prayers and empathy to Lee’s entire family and many friends. I am terribly sorry — I know your grief extends far beyond what’s imaginable, for I feel it too. Sending love, hugs and prayers to you all. . .

    Aahh, my heart is too heavy. I witnessed Lee’s youthful years as he was my brother Ty’s best buddy. The two of them practically lived at my house on Rawson Ave. in Fremont, along with Matt M., Bryan M., Matt W., and others.

    Lee held an extra special place in my heart. He was kind, considerate, polite, funny, and very well loved. Lee seemed to take an interest in others at an age that showed a maturity beyond that of his peers. It was an unusual trait that seemed uncommon and set him apart from others. In every sense, Lee was my ‘other’ little brother. My sister and her family were exceptionally close to Lee as well. My brother and Lee were inseparable through their youthful mischief and adolescent angst. He will always be remembered for his kindness; his sweet soul.

    With love,

    Lana
