Not sure what to say?

I have a number of good memories from working with Lee, one being his wry sense of humor, and another his appreciation baseball' and the poetry of the game. I still miss him and hope Carol is doing well.

I remain glad and fortunate to have met Lee and to have worked under him at the Journal of Infectious Diseases. I really admired Lee and have fond memories of him and his dry sometimes biting sense of humor.

Condolences from Leland's Dartmouth Class of 1967. I'm Jim Rooks, editor of the class newsletter. We just learned of Leland's passing. Can someone get in touch with me at [email protected] so we can write an appropriate newsletter notice? Thanks.

My condolences, Carol. Lee was, in my book, a special guy - funny, interesting, serious, and always an interesting take on whatever we may have been discussing. I'm thankful I had the chance to meet and work with him. My best to you and your family. Rick Tudor

Our deepest sympathies are with you and your family..
