John Saraga lit a candle

“In loving memory of Lee G. Esprit Jr. My friend walked with purpose, his mantra was God, Family, and Community. He practiced this better than most, he deeply loved our god, his family and thy neighbor. A gentle man who was slow to anger worked tirelessly to help make this world a better place. Dr. Espirit did not judge, he made friends and made a difference. Proud to have called him my friend. Delores and his loved family, please accept our most heartfelt sympathies for your loss.”
