Lee county response
 
From: pamba1@aol.com
 
Ms. Steele,
 
Thank you for writing to Commissioner John Manning regarding the request to remove General Robert E. Lee’s portrait in the County Commissioner Chambers and to change our county’s name.  Commissioner Manning asked that I inform you that he does not support the removal of the portrait or the name change and today the issue came forward to set it for a public hearing and the Board members didn’t vote to do that.
