Uncle Bobby...Dentist, farmer, golfer, superb tenor..yet an endearingly humble man. How I wish that seeing you in Accra in October wasn't the final time we would meet and you have known me since my christening in 1954. You've fought the good fight, touched so many lives, and given so much to Ghana. Thank you so much...you have earned your eternal rest...love Nii Okai....Atlanta, GA

Dear Randy and the entire Dr. Lee Family,
I want to offer from my family to your family our heartfelt condolences and sympathy for the Home Going of our dear friend, Dr. Lee. As a Patriarch of the African American Community in Ghana and in the Diaspora, the life he lived impacted everyone whom he came in contact with. He was a true Pan African whose life is to be emulated. As for Remel, Saeed, Omari and myself, we will surely miss the man we counted as a member of our famuly. May God through Jesus Christ bless his spirit and may the Holy Spirit provide comfort and peace to the family during this time of mourning. God Bless you all and Keep you all in His perfect peace.
Rev.Philip Moore
Friend,Pan African,former AAAG President
