Lee J. Wendt

I met Lee on my first day working at Elmhurst-Chicago Stone Company, August 1, 1977. He was a mentor and friend to me at work and in life. We shared our love of fishing traveling to lake Gogebic in Michigan with Loren Schustler from Howell Tractor. Lee was a stern but compassionate person. He spoke his mind freely. He went to bat for people who deserved it. Loved talking baseball. Was an incredible mechanic. Loved rolling a pack of cigarettes in the sleeve of his shirt just for the look....

Rest in peace my friend Lee

Lee was an amazing man, husband and father. I remember your wedding like it was yesterday. Barbie, your beautiful smile, the flowers and how you radiated happiness each time you looked at Lee. Sending much love and hugs to you and Mia.

So sorry to here about Lee passing. Lee hired me in the early 70s at the Warrenville plant . Was a good guy to have for a boss. Quick story I rode a three wheel atv to work while I was working there was lee on my atc 90 making all kinds of dust he did have a sense of humor. Again very sorry for your loss.

I was very lucky to have an Uncle/mentor like Lee in my life. He was always there, and got me started in my career.
Thank you for everything Uncle Lee, you will be missed. But the funny stories will live forever. ❤ Don, Dawn Christina, Katie.

Greg & I have wonderful memories of times spent together with Lee & your family. He was a jolly guy~He is greatly missed.
We love you, Barb & Mia

May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived.

As the days and weeks pass, and as you return to life's routine, may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of family and friends.

I am so sorry for your loss, Barbie and Mia. Thank you for including me - I will be there. Praying for you ❤
