I met Lee when he arrived in Durango, riding his Triumph 650 over Wolf Creek in a snow storm. He told he it was freaking cold and tricky riding. We had a great friendship at Ft. Lewis College. Sadly, over the years , we had only a few chances to reconnect, but when we did it was always great fun. He really enjoyed his work and life in Georgetown. His passing just made world a bit smaller for me..my most sincere condolences to his wife and family.
