Serving others filled Lee’s heart with joy. For nearly half a century, he devoted his heart and time to his work with the Lion’s Club. From 2011 – 2012 he served as District Governor for Area 2-A1. Working with the children at Texas Lions Camp was one of his favorite experiences. Lee was an active part of the reunion group from his time serving in Antarctica. The group would meet up somewhere in the world bi-annually. Lee & Saundra worked to plan the reunion group’s San Antonio gathering. Most recently, Lee enjoyed volunteering with the American Legion in Bangs, TX. He served as the finance officer and loved helping with bingo.
Lee absolutely loved being a family man. He was a devoted husband, loving father, and proud grandfather. Lee enjoyed dominos and Hallmark movies, ever the sentimentalist. You would often find him watching the deer graze and the bluebonnets bloom from the back porch. As anyone who has ever had a conversation with Lee would know, he was quite the storyteller and well-known for his corny jokes.
In lieu of flowers, Lee personally requested that donations be made to Texas Lions Camp in tribute to H. Lee Sigler. https://www.lionscamp.com/
