Lee, I knew you well. My fondest memories will always be of Lee in his office and kingdom in the Tower. He held court on many occasions and for any number of reasons. He was always rough, but fair....tough, but for a reason...working, but for a cause. Lee, you are one in a million, and we all will miss you. Rest in peace.

The world has lost an original! I cherish many wonderful memories of working with Lee. He will not be forgotten. My thoughts and prayers are with Norma and the family....even though we know that Lee is finally at peace. And I guess by now he and Steve Barker are chatting up a storm!

To the family of Lee Schwartz, my sincere sympathy to you all on the passing of a great guy, Lee Schwartz. I worked with Lee in the display business at Sears years ago and for quite a long time, I remember him well, waving his well-chewed cigar like he was leading an orchestra. May he rest in peace.
