Not sure what to say?

I have know Bob my whole live. He and my father used to race together back in the day.

Bob made a big difference in my life I´ll miss him

This man literally changed my life over a phone call in 1977, I so regret not staying in touch but I do miss you Bob, you were such an iconic figure and I´m glad I got to meet you.

Bob Lee was a legend. Enjoyed the stories he sent in to Cruisin' Style Magazine about Nostalgia Drag Racing. He had an interesting outlook on life. Always fun to talk to on the phone and in person. I took this shot at a Nostalgia event at Bradenton Motorsport Park. Deepest Condolences to his family. RIP

Bob was the best. My condolences to his family. Known bob 45 years. A good friend. He was a very knowledgeable person and always got the job done. And always worked hard. I don´t know anyone that did the work that he did and charged so little. A great person to talk to. Built several of my engines. He will definitely be missed. I feel bad that he is now gone.

A Fort Lauderdale Legend, RIP.

He will be missed by all of us who knew him. Racing won't be the same without him. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family.

My husband thought the world of you. RIP Bob.
