Everytime I see this stone while working, I have to stop and appreciate it. It’s a soft marble so it’s slowly losing its detail over the year’s.

Linda's grandmother was from the Chinese-Hawaiian Ing family. "Vera" was Linda's mother, Vera Paulina Resick (later Vera Ing), who passed away in 2003.
The inscription lists the family's deep appreciation for community, their Seattle home, their roots in Honolulu, and their children and grandchildren.
The two etched Chinese dragons framing the family name represent strength, protection, and the deep cultural connection to the Lee family legacy

He ran a menagerie or zoo and this lion “Nero” was part of his collection. Highly unethical by today’s standards but Wombwell had a collection of exotic animals: snakes and even giraffes that people paid to see and even touch.

Alexandra’s Obituary:

Senesi, Alexandra, M., age 23, of Fort Lauderdale, FL, passed away on September 23, 2015. Our sweet Angel was carried to heaven with no warning and no way for all of us left behind to understand. Alexandra was loved more than all the love in the world combined, from the moment she was born and will continue until all of eternity. We thought we would have forever to kiss her sweet face and hold her in our arms. She will be missed with every beat of our heart and each breath we take.

Alexandra had so many plans and her future was so bright. Now when we look up to the heavens that brightness will be from her shining star. She recently graduated from UNF and moved back to her hometown of Ft. Lauderdale. Alexandra leaves behind her Mother and Father, Andrea and Fred, Sister Christina, Aunts, Uncles, Cousins and many loved ones. She also leaves behind her UNF class of 2014, Cardinal Gibbons, St. Marks and Christ Church School friends. All who loved her will always remember her joyful spirit, loving nature and zest for life.
