Not sure what to say?

December 28, 2024. I took my brother on a baseball trip in the summer of 2024 to San Francisco. I met up with Lee´s right hand man...Mr Bill Baron. In true Lee fashion, Bill welcomed us, spoiled us, and made the trip so eventful. I thanked Bill for being Bill ....AND I was proud of Bill reminding me of Lee. Bill Baron is Lee reincarnated. The world is a better place. RIP Lee Brandenburg. I miss you. Evan Parliament Summerland, BC, Canada

One of my many stories of Lee being Lee.
In 2009, I organized a Canadian delegation to head to San Francisco to meet with Brandenburg Properties. When Lee greeted us at the airport, he insisted we visit the first Irish coffee house in America. The place was packed. Standing room only. Lee ordered 10 Irish Coffees and then demanded everyone's attention. The place went silent. He then made a public announcement that 7 Canadians were in the house and he asked the crowd if they would like to...

Lee's bigger than life story was beautifully stated in the obituary that could have gone for multiple pages and even then the whole wonderful story of his impact on people would be abbreviated! I feel privileged to have known Lee and shared so many different experiences in so many different circumstances. I am so sorry for your loss Diane and my prayers will be with you and the family.

I just imagine Lee and Jack up there singing together and helping each other remember the words.long time sigma nu brother and friend....so many memories.Peace and love I send to Diane and the family. Love Fran(Jack) Bennett

God bless you Lee. You touched many lives and I am one of them. Thank you for all you generosity, enthusiasm and dynamic vision. You left this world a better place.

What a lovely and loving obituary, that captures Lee's spirit and profound influence so well. Lee was a mentor to me and incredibly generous to Shirley and I, and our family. I know that he touched countless people's lives in the same way.

I will never forget his passion for, and commitment to, always doing the right thing for the right reason. Oh, and what a sense of humor! I will miss you, Lee. RIP.
