Not sure what to say?

I had the privilege of working with Lee as his legal assistant for several years. Lee was a great lawyer and I learned so much from him. I was thinking about him today because it is his birthday and looked him up. I am sad to learn of his passing. My condolences to Lee´s family.

I loved Lee dearly. He was one of the most open-hearted and compassionate people I ever knew. In our pastoral visits, no matter what he was going through, he never failed to ask me how I was doing, and that was more unusual than one might think. He had a fierce commitment to justice and lived it out in every way he could. And oh, how he adored his girls, and his grandchildren. I wish I had gotten to see him dance.

So very sorry to hear about Lee´s passing. I have always remember him fondly and Joyce and I want to share our deepest condolences to you and your family. Joyce and Bob Gettleman
