More detail on this person: Leland Leroy Huber was born on September 9, 1936 in Easton, Illinois and left us on May 1, 2021. He was dedicated to his family, both that into which he was born, and the one he created with his wife and daughter. Lee was a proud veteran of the United States Army, in which he served as a military policeman, an armor officer, and a helicopter pilot. Lee's twenty years of military service included two combat tours in Vietnam. He loved to fly, especially Hueys, and spent years as an instructor pilot at Fort Rucker after his retirement. Lee's interest in, and his love for his fellow man was evident in the years he spent involved in Scouting and Civitan, his generous support of Veterans' Service Organizations, and his volunteer service for the Veterans' Administration. He will be sorely missed by his remaining siblings, nieces, and nephews, as well as loving wife, Lisa, his daughter Cindy Huber Brown, her husband Charlie, and their daughter Lexie. A private service for immediate family only will be held at Dunbar Funeral Home, Northeast Chapel. Military funeral honors will be held in Fort Jackson National Cemetery at a later date. In lieu of flowers, please consider making a donation to Civitan Club of Columbia, 201 Garden View Drive, West Columbia 29169, or your local Civitan Club to further their support of those with developmental disabilities in your community.
