I drove through Marysville, Ohio yesterday. Lee farmed in the area, so I was reminded of Lee and what a great friend he was to me. An honest,, hard working, do anything he could to help you kinda of a guy.. Miss you Lee.

Lee and I worked together in the printing industry and became close friends. We both farmed as a second occupation. Lee once told me he thought of me as his brother and I felt the same way about him. We lost touch with each other when he moved from Marysville to Springfield.
I am deeply saddened by the news of his passing as I have been trying to locate him for several years. He was a great guy.

Miss you Lee

Lee and I were friends in our early years. We spent many memorable days as free range kids', making our own fun on his farm. I will miss him.
