The final resting place of Lady Lee Price is near the south end of Resthaven Gardens, at the south side of Mausoleum Building #10. This is a beautiful marker honoring a woman who was obviously loved by many. A bronze rose is at the left side of the plaque, and a lovely photo of Lady Lee is at the center.
