Lee's life was a life for others. He cared deeply for country, family and friends and was a wonderful role model for us all. I am so glad that he and Trudy and their children had so many wonderful years together. He left too suddenly but his impact remains. God bless Lee and all his family.

Lee, you have been a great leader, classmate, and friend. Through tragic accident you left Trudy and all of us prematurely. We will continue to miss you and your very special personality. May you rest eternally in God's hands.
