Friday, family, friends, law enfrocers and state and local leaders said their final goodbyes to the late Jefferson Parish Sheriff Harry Lee. Monday, Lee lost his battle with Leukemia. I attended his visitation at the Alario Center and was struck by the outpouring of love and support for a man who was truly larger than life.
Folks waiting in line for the public viewing described Lee as controversial, a straight shooter, a legendary lawman and a man who built the JPSO into one of the best sheriff's departments in the country.
What are some of your thoughts? How will you remember Harry Lee?
