It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Alfonzo Lee, who left this world on August 6, 2025, at the age of 78. Alfonzo was born on December 4, 1946, in Slidell, Louisiana, to Bobby and Theresa Lee.

Alfonzo was a loving father to Keitha, Arthur, and Tonya. He was also a proud grandfather to seven wonderful grandchildren Corey Smith , Camron Terrell, Derrick Porter, Keshura Porter , Kaylah Porter , Areal Smith , Kaitlyn Taylor . Let's just say that family gatherings were never dull with Alfonzo around!

Alfonzo dedicated many years of his life to the U.S. Army, where he served as a Sergeant. He was a true patriot and always had a funny story or joke to share with his fellow soldiers.

Alfonzo will be remembered for his larger-than-life personality, his infectious laughter, and his love for a good plate of crawfish. We will miss his terrible dad jokes and his uncanny ability to make everyone in the room laugh.

Rest in peace, Alfonzo. We will forever cherish the memories we shared with you and the joy you brought into our lives.

Farewell From Family & Friends

Though we need to weep your loss, You dwell in that safe place in our hearts, Where no storm or night or pain can reach you. Your love was like the dawn. Brightening over our lives.Awakening beneath the dark.A further adventure of colour.

The sound of your voice. Found for us A new music That brightened everything. Whatever you enfolded in your gaze. Quickened in the joy of its being. You placed smiles like flowers. On the altar of the heart. Your mind always sparkled With wonder at things.

Though your days here were brief, Your spirit was live, awake, complete. We look towards each other no longer From the old distance of our names; Now you dwell inside the rhythm of breath, As close to us as we are to ourselves.

Though we cannot see you with outward eyes, We know our soul's gaze is upon your face, Smiling back at us from within everything To which we bring our best refinement.

Let us not look for you only in memory, Where we would grow lonely without you. You would want us to find you in presence, Beside us when beauty brightens, When kindness glows And music echoes eternal tones.

When orchids brighten the earth, Darkest winter has turned to spring; May this dark grief flower with hope In every heart that loves you.

May you continue to inspire us: To enter each day with a generous heart. To serve the call of courage and love Until we see your beautiful face again . In that land where there is no more separation, Where all tears will be wiped from our mind, And where we will never lose you again.
