The first time that I met Lee, I knew that he stood apart as someone special. I always looked forward to seeing him on a project and then going to lunch with him (and Lee always made me buy!) It was a privilege to have known Lee and his contributions to the many construction projects that he was a part of were powerful and his work ethic more than remarkable.
He was one of a kind....
Much Respect~
