Lee was a good crappie fisherman and we shared many years and trips together. When I fished with Lee I knew I'd get to see a sunrise as he always wanted to be on the water at "civil twilight"....which is a half hour before sunrise. He was a Navy veteran and a staunch Republican and we had many spirited discussions on politics, the economy and the direction this country was headed. He taught me a lot even though we were usually on the same page politically. You will be missed and I'm sending my deepest condolences to your wife Sharon and your family.
