Lee Grady Edington's Obituary
The freest of spirits broke loose from earth's restraints on November 21, 2014, when the 19 year old Bradenton resident, departed this world. Along with his parents, Lee is survived by his big brother, Kyle Edington; his grandmother, Catherine Edington; his aunts, Beth Petrillo and Robin Graham; his uncles, Phil Petrillo and Norman Narmore; his cousins, Benjamin and Nicholas Petrillo and many dearly loved ''cousin-cousins'' great aunts, great uncles and dear friends. Lee is predeceased by his grandfathers, John Edington and Ray Narmore; his grandmother, Jean Narmore and his eternal love and best friend, Amber Darlene France. Lee was born in Sarasota on September 8, 1995 to Jerry and Dian Edington. Lee graduated Manatee High School earlier this year and was working towards entering college to earn culinary and business degrees in preparation for fulfilling his dream of creating a ''world class'' restaurant. Lee loved being outdoors, especially in or on the water, loved animals and wholeheartedly valued time hanging with his friends. People who had the privilege of meeting Lee were quickly converted from strangers to friends due to his quick, disarming, often mischievous and irresistible smile. A Gathering will be from 10:00-11:00AM Wednesday November 26 with a Memorial Service at 11:00AM at Trinity United Methodist Church, 3200 Manatee Ave W, Braden-ton, FL 34205. Brown & Sons Funeral Homes & Crematory 43rd Street Chapel, 604 43rd Street West, Bradenton, FL 34209 is in charge of arrangements.
