I’ve known Lee and his family from way back when.

I severed as a pall bearer today.

Lee is getting buried in Columbus where his wife's from. But yes with the Hearst and cars/trucks having Msu flags and decals on the vehicles. Good man and great family, I actually Coached Lee and his younger brother a few years in H.S. He had a heart attack right after our last baseball game.

Knew Lee from the original Internet Bulldog Booster Club (IBBC) message board. He was a good man and a faithful Bulldog. Sorry for the loss.

Me too, although I didn't know him well. It was a pretty good-sized tailgate in the day. Lee was not all that old was he?
