Buell Lee, Casey Co., KY native (1917-2011)

He was a wonderful man, born in Casey Co., KY in 1917 and attended Casey County schools. When his mother died when he was nine years old, it became his responsibility to help his father raise the other children. Later, as a young man, he moved to Indiana to find work and also found the love of his life, Beatrice Emerson Lee. The marriage endured 64 years until her death in 2004. He was a successful contractor in Franklin, IN. He was a man of boundless energy. He loved to make things grow, and always planted far more than his family would ever need, so he would have plenty to share with anyone in need. He loved the Lord and read the Bible daily. He loved people and with his engaging smile he never met a stranger. He will be returned to his final earthly resting place in his beloved Liberty, Casey Co, KY.

Buell Lee passed away on Tuesday, March 22, 2011 at the age of 93. He was a longtime Franklin, IN, resident and had been a patient at Homeview Health and Rehabilitation Center in Franklin for the past four months.

A funeral service will be conducted at 11amET/10amCT, Saturday, March 26, 2011, at McKinney-Brown Funeral Home, 752 Campbellsville ST, Liberty, Ky. Visitation will be from 4pm-8pmET/3pm-7pmCT, Friday at the funeral home, and also prior to the service on Saturday. Burial will be in Whited Cemetery in Liberty, KY. Wanda Carter, his niece, will preside at the funeral.

Putting the A-Team victory into perspective: Simply amazing

There were over 160 teams competing in the State Finals alone. Except for Russell Independent, Adair County was significantly the smallest school out of those in the Top 5 in terms of total points. Luke Maupin was No. 1 in Social Studies, competing against 1,000 of the state's brightest.

Special ColumbiaMagazine.com comment

To answer the question on Columbia Magazine about the scope of the accomplishment at State, over 160 was the number of teams represented by individuals or competing teams just at State Finals alone.

That's not taking into consideration the teams eliminated at Regional level and District level.
