Lest We Forget The Loss Of
The Classmates of '64-'65-'66
Which We Reported in 2020
Editor's Note: While working on last year's reunion it was found several classmates had passed but we were just made aware of their passing. They are included in this memorial.
We recommend you start the video above for a soundtrack and then slowly scroll through the photos of your classmates below. Go slowly through them and recall the memories associated with the classmates you knew, or just the memories of your days at Lee with them.

Dorothy June Vernon
Lee High Home Economics Teacher
September 9, 1933 - June 9, 2020
Memphis, TN -Happy New Year 2021. This week’s Traveller is being published a little earlier than normal since it is the issue in which we remember and honor our fellow classmates we lost last year. This list also includes a long list of classmates we lost earlier but were just made aware of. It is a list of 42 classmates and two faculty who were at Lee with us during our years there. It is eye-opening and sad to see such a long list of names. Many of you will know a lot of them, but I doubt if any of you knew all of them. Still, we all walked the halls together and attended ball games together and all were proud to call ourselves Generals.
We all hope the new year will heal the problems we faced in 2020 and that soon things will return to as close to the normal we once new as it can.
I hope all of you stay safe and continue to do what is necessary to avoid becoming a pandemic statistic.
Peace be with you my friends.

Choral Music Teacher / Lee High Principal

Bob Andrews Remembered
Jim McBride
LHS '65
Bob Andrews was a manager for our 1961 undefeated Madison County Championship team.. The last Lee Jr. High baseball team.
Bob is kneeling on the first row, next to Don Cornelius. Sadly, at least three more friends in this picture have passed away. Jed Stephens, Terry Preston and Richard Lyons were all part of the best team I ever played on.
R.I.P. Bob.
