It's the anniversary of your passing and I still think of you. You were such a wonderful guy and friend. You will always have a place in my heart for the good times. You were a very affectionate guy and gave great bear hugs. We wish you were back with us. You left a legacy of wonderful children. You can be proud. I needed to leave one last note of remembrance. Your at peace. Judy

I first met Lee in 2013 when he gave me a job working for Outten. I always found him to be, above all, a fair and patient boss. I did not have the privilege of knowing Lee as long as most of the other guestbook contributors, but I respected him and admired his work ethic and his devotion to his job. Rest in peace Lee.
