We´re very sorry for your loss. Lee was a wonderful man. We always enjoyed our time spent with Lee mostly going off topic for hours and eventually getting back on topic before we wrapped up our meeting. We always felt better after talking to Lee because he just made us feel welcome like we were old friends. He will surely be missed by anyone who knew him.

On behalf of the Daughters of the American Revolution, Comfort Tyler Chapter (Syracuse), we send our condolences to the family.
Forget Me Not
Don´t remember me not with sadness,
Don´t remember me with tears,
Remember all the laughter,
We´ve shared throughout the years,
Now I am contented,
That my life it was worthwhile.
Knowing that I passed along the way,
I made somebody smile,
When you are walking down the street,
And you´ve got me on your mind,
I´m walking in your footsteps,
Only half a step behind,
So please don´t be unhappy,
Just because I´m out of sight,
Remember that I´m with you,
Each morning, noon, and night.

My husband first introduced Lee to me, as your financial advisor. However, it was soon very apparent that he was more than that. Lee was a gentle giant, immersed with kindness, humor, wisdom, and much compassion for life. He taught me more about humanity than anything. When he retired, I felt I was losing a true friend, knowing no one could possibly replace him. My deepest condolences go out to his family and his soul mate, Joelle.

We met Lee when he was our Prudential Insurance advisor and that was when our lifelong friendship began. We followed Lee when he started his financial advisor role. Our friendship never let business interfere with our social meetings. We attended most of his birthday parties, his wedding to Joelle and just good conversations but did not talk politics which he loved to do. Our sincere condolences to Joelle and the family.
