To my Dad,
Thank you for everything you did for me. I love you. My faith is my strength. I will see you in paradise. Until then, I will always remember all of the laughs we shared when we were together. Our shared love of southern cooking. And our love of sports. Rest in peace dad.
Your son,
Rick

My heart is broken beyond repair. Tommy has been friend for 60 years.

Dr. Lee was an excellent Superintendent for HCSD.  Whenever, a parent or staff had a question he was always willing to help and with  a smile. Sending prayers to all the family.

Dr Lee was our Superintendent in Harris Co for nine years and he supported teachers and strengthened our schools. His commitment to education helped shape the future of our school district. He was a leader, an educator and a friend. I remember his laugh so well and I am thankful for the memories I have. Prayers for his family. He will be missed.

My thoughts and prayers are with the family. 
Tommy was a good man and will be truly missed. 
Steve Locklar 🙏

Dr. Tommie Lee was a great educator, an excellent mentor, and a good friend. I am praying for his family during this sad time.
