It was always a pleasure when Lee and Marjorie would come up to Fort Collins to visit the boys. He always had a smile on his face, and a joke in his heart. He was fun to be around. I enjoyed seeing him at the girl's soccer games when he could make it, and sharing lunch afterwards. He was kind and gentle, and will be missed tremendously. God Bless.

Lee J,, Steve and families. Your dad was a kind and wonderful neighbor. We always enjoyed our visits with him and- seeing him at different events. As you know, we also loved your mother. You were lucky to have such great parents who raised such little "hellions" with a loving touch and who turned out to be such nice men.

Lee was treasurer of the Applewood Kiwanis Club for years. He faithfully attended toe weekly meetings even when he could not drive himself. I always enjoyed his company at these meetings. He was a great friend and will be missed by many.

I grew up the youngest in our family on my Mom’s side, the Knoll side. While growing up, we spent every Christmas together and many birthdays. I remember playing cards in their basement “rumpus” room, which was decorated with Pontiac posters—Uncle Lloyd sold Pontiacs. I remember the wonderful homemade ice cream that Lee and EJ had to help crank. Once I had a business meeting in Denver and Bill went with me. Lee and Margie gave us a great tour of the mountains. It was great to visit them. I am so sorry you’ve lost this special Dad. ❤️

Our deepest sympathies to you and your family. Lee was such a warm and gracious man who we greatly admired! A measure of that is we moved to the east coast 19 years ago but held on to Lee, the company he developed and the family’s services to this day! He will be fondly remembered by us with respect and with thanks for his professional advice and support.
