Not sure what to say?

Sorry to hear of your loss. Never met Lee in person but we had a very good business relationship.He made me feel like we were old friends, was always understanding when times were slow and I was a little late on paying for my sign supplies.I know from our phone conversations he enjoyed his Manhattan after work. I will miss him as a vendor and as a business associate and our friendly phone conversations, Sincerely Bob Murphy.

Tammy and Todd, we just saw this obituary and did not know of Lee's passing. Our deepest sympathy to you and your family. He will join uncle Bob and Aunt Pat now!! Blessings , Peto and Barb Allen

I feel blessed for the time I got to share with Lee. From the moment I met him he became a very important part of my life. I will think of his smile every time I walk into work. God speed Lee. I love you!

I work for Lee starting in 1980-1987 at a small company called Score-Tyme. Lee was a good man to work for and became friends as well over the years. I remember his two children, Todd and Tamara growing up. I moved away in 1987 but would always stay in touch over the years. Lee was a very good man and I'm sure will be highly missed in the community.
May he rest in peace!
Sincerely,
Paul Frayer

Todd, Tammy and Family our thoughts are with you at this difficult time.
We have many great memories of fun times with Lee over the years. He was a good friend and golf partner it took awhile but we finally won a tournament. God bless him!

This is very sad news. Lee will be greatly missed by so many of us in the sign trade. Thoughts and prayers for the family.

Tammy and Todd ... I am so saddened to think that your Dad is longer here on earth with us ... I do know he is in a far better place ... There he is painfree and strong. And drinking a Manhattan ...Please know how blessed I feel to have met him.. There was nobody like Lee ...He was so courageous, he fought the good fight.. I loved his laugh. It always made my day when he would say " hi kiddo, how are you??? " He was a gem ..Such a great great man and he always said how great his kids...

Please accept my deepest sympathy for your loss, may our Lord comfort you and may your heart find peace in the words of our Savior Jesus Matthew 6:10.

Lee -

Your golf buddies ( Jim Larry and John) will never forget you pressing the bet on the 18th hole followed by your next golf short over the fence on Alum Rock Road. I promise to take your 5.00 and toast an "Old Fashion" drink in memory of you. We are all better for having you in our life. I hope you can swing the golf club better with angle wings : ) We wish your family the best in these difficult times. You will be missed by all of us.
