I just learned of Lee's passing. I'm shocked and sadden. My thoughts and prayers are with his wife Terri, his family and friends. I really enjoyed working with Lee. He was so smart, creative and funny. No doubt he's now catching up with Miss Ava Gardner and learning more antics about her. I will certainly miss our MANY many chats and working with you. Rest in Paradise my friend. xo
