Not sure what to say?

What a guy, what a life. I'm so much better for knowing him. Be well, Anne....

Bob was my next-door neighbor at Dayton, Montana. Regretfully, we never met in person.

Mr. Lee , He lived and he died and in between he really made a difference. Thank you so much for so much.

I was able to walk through Mr. Lee's auto collection. I was a Fireman in Sparks and we were dispatched to his building at 2 in the morning for a fire alarm. False alarm. I had been working with Mr. Lee's staff to try to get an antique fire engine totally refurbished. Anyways, I would have liked to have known Mr. Lee It is apparent he was a very interesting man it would've been good to sit down and talk. His adventure and business energy are inspirational.

We read today...My mother who is now 88 today found a paper with his mother's (Sally) name on it...then asked me ( daughter) to look at the internet and saw this...I remember her talking about them...they frequently came to my father's restaurant at New York Casa Mario in the 70's...
She remembers them and Bob very well with nice memories. ..

Mrs. Brockington Lee,I'm so very sorry about the loss of your husband last year. I admired your husband very much and he was an exceptional person. My name is Joe Bobko. I would love to speak with you at your convenience. My email is [email protected] my sincere condolences. Joe Bobko

I was saddened to learn of Bob's passing through the annual Christmas card. I met Bob in 2000 while developing a forest management plan for his property at Lake Tahoe. He was direct and very approachable. We had several lengthy discussions about forest management, not always seeing eye to eye, but respecting each others point of view. I offer my condolences to Anne and other family members.

Caro Mr Lee, solo ora apprendo che sei entrato nei sogni che hai saputo creare. Avevo affetto per l'uomo che ho conosciuto e per il suo ricordo. Una persona davvero speciale.
Joseph Brescia.

Condolences to Anne and family. Had the pleasure of being part of the 1931 Daimler restoration while at RM Classic Cars. Kind and generous . God Bless
