After High School, she met the love of her life, Charlie Morey, and on June 19, 1971 they were married at the Deering Grange in Portland.

Lee and Charlie had two boys, Christopher and Scott.  Her boys meant the world to her, being a mother was one of her proudest accomplishments. Family and friends were also very important to her.  She always enjoyed spending time with her own mother, even spending every Saturday night shopping. It was well known that she could shop all night as this was something she enjoyed very much. She was also known to be a great cook, using her mother’s recipes to make wonderful dinners for family and friends. She was also a Volkswagen enthusiast and owned many over the years, her most current one was a Volkswagen Jetta.

Lee was also very passionate about animals and her two cats Moxie and Milo who provided her great companionship. In her later years, she was a very proud grandmother to her granddaughter, Emma Grace, who always put a smile on Lee’s face when she was around.  Even though Lee only had the one granddaughter, she was very well liked by many of the children of her friends who would always enjoy visiting with her. She was always very concerned about others and always made sure everyone she knew was taken care of no matter what they may have needed.  She will be deeply missed by her family and friends.

She is survived by:  her loving husband of 46 years, Charlie of South Portland; two sons, Scott and his partner, Hannah, and Christopher; brother, Reynold Theriault and his wife, Carol; granddaughter, Emma Grace; and close friends, Donna and James Stanhope.
