Not sure what to say?

Dearest Robin,
Lee’s life was so rich and vibrant. It is truly sad when it comes to an end. I hope you are treating yourself gently.

You were always my guiding light as we traveled through the years

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 and I hope to see you soon. If there is anything I can do, please reach out.

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow. Lee was a good man and friend!

See you again old friend , keep the gates open

I worked for Lee for many years in civil service, what a wonderful boss he was and a huge influence on my career. My thoughts and prayers go out to his family. He touched so many lives!

Lee was a huge supporter influence on me and my civil service career. I will forever be in his debt.

I love you honey I miss you everyday and every minute of each day.

Offering our deepest condolences during this difficult time.
