Lee was a great person to work with and a good friend to talk with about anything even politics. Rachel was just looking at pictures of us at fairgrounds building the horse rink and dad and shaking hands. These are in 4-H office.

Dear Mary,
I'm so sorry to hear of Lee's passing. Given these Covid times, we haven't been out and about much and so I've missed seeing you both, but he was such a nice and funny guy! He always made me smile. Those 50 years will hold you in many memories.
