I was sadden to hear of the passing of the awesome man who never thought of his needs first. Colonel Lee was always here to help SAVE by his time and talent. Prayers to his family. Colonel Lee will never be forgotten by his Friends at SAVE. Sue Zaring - SAVE, Inc.

One simple word describes Col. Lee he was a"Gentleman" through and through. I had the pleasure of working with him as a member of the Fairview Heights Police Pension fund, and observed him work tirelessly to see that our investments were securely and wisely invested. His oversight has allowed those of us now on pensions to enjoy the fruits of his investment wisdom. Thanks, Col Lee
