    I have many happy memories of my childhood and young years hanging out at their cabin and other good timeswith Lee and Lori. Lee was my date to the Spring dance in 9 the grade. Too soon for both of you.

    Lori, Bob and Lee left us way too soon. So many years of great memories of the Rock Creek cabin, and playing pool. Lee, you will be missed.

    Such fond memories of Lee, Lori and Bob! Growing up up at Rock Creek! Lee and Lori were such a constant presence when I was little then again after they were adults and I was a teen. Then in college taking me hunting! Then the breaks Lee, Lori and Bob would provide when I was taking care of the parents! You are so missed.

    I met Lee at the University of Montana the fall of 1974. I didn’t know him very well. The one lasting memory I have of him always makes me smile. He entered the back door of the Food Service on Halloween dressed as Richard Nixon waving the victory sign with both hands. Rest In Peace Lee.🙏🙏🙏
