To all of Lee's family - I knew Lee through the AFP chapter here in Dallas and came to enjoy his presence and respect his work a great deal.  May God bless and keep you all as you face this terribly sad time without him.

To the Carter Family,
I only worked with Mr Carter at the Dallas Holocaust Museum for a short time, but his assistance with school groups was wonderful. He was always tremendously supportive of our endeavours at the Museum. He will be throroughly missed and please accept my sincerest condolences.

Dear Gravely and Storey, 
I am a friend of Storey's Mom from Mount Vernon College. I am so sorry for your loss. Peace and Grace to you and all of your family.
Karin Moyer Swenson and Family.

Dear Martha,
I know how distraught you and the children are, as am I. Lee's dad hired me and Lee was the first to welcome me to A&A. You and the kids then became my friends. I still have fond memories of the Sundays when I would arrive in Dallas and we would all have dessert at the Plaza of the Americas. He was a wonderful colleague and friend to me and I know a wonderful husband to you and father to his kids and grandfather to his grandchildren. (And even though I polished the soles of my shoes you and he welcomed me in your home.) As the saying goes, he will be missed by many and especially by me. Much love, Sandy Clark

Dear Martha,
During this difficult time, I hope you may be consoled by the fullness of Lee's life. His work to help others was done joyfully and with meaning. Lee's spirit remains a part of everyone he touched. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.

Martha, I was saddened to learn of your loss.  The Shufords and the Carters (and the Harrises) go way back; the Gravely connection is more recent (only about a half century.)  Lee was a valued colleague at A&A; indeed, he is the reason I was able to join that firm - at the time strong and dynamic reflecting the legacy of Felix Harris and Lee's father.  Lee made his valued contributions there too and I was one of many who benefited from his support.  I have fond memories of that shared part of our careers.  He continued to support others after leaving A&A.  A great legacy.

Dear Martha and family,
Tony and I are devastated.  Please know how much we admired Lee, his endless giving and his strong character. You are on our hearts and minds and we pray that " ... the peace of God, that transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds."  - Phillipians 4:7

With love, Donna and Tony Thomas
