LEE BURIED IN ISNEY CEMETERY The angel of death called Alba A. Lee, age 54, to rest on the morning of September 5th. "Ab" as he was known by all of his friends, was born and reared near Isney, Alabama. In 1921, he married Miss Claudie Singley of Cullomburg. "Ab" was a veteran of World War I. He had been in declining health for a number of years, and had been confined to his wheelchair for the past three years, having had one leg amputated three years ago. He bore his suffering gallantly, seldom complaining to anyone. He had a kind word for all and was especially loved by children. Before "Ab" became crippled, he was a neighbor you could depend on to lend a helping hand. After he could no longer walk, his hands were always busy helping around his home in every way possible. "Ab" will be greatly missed by all who knew him. He was laid to rest in Isney cemetery with Rev. W. L. Ezell conducting the funeral rites. Active pallbearers were Latham Long, Lyn Norton, Charlie Worsham, Marshall Lassiter, Claud Lee, and Jesse Singley. He is survived by his wife, Claudie Singley Lee; three children, a son, Ferris Lee of Oak Grove, Ala; a daughter, Helen Lee of Mobile; and an adopted son, Kenneth Lee of Cullomburg; two brothers, Edgar Lee and Artie C. Lee of Buccatuna, Miss.; three sisters, Mrs. Jack Ratcliff, Mobile; Mrs. Roy McIlwain, Columbus, Ohio; and Mrs. Jimmie Pierce, Columbus, Ohio.
