Long time moderlers and MR readers are probably familiar with this superb modeler (On3) and craftsman (and member of the Kalmbach Publishing art staff). His scratchbuilt depot a few years ago was a really nice piece of work. Today's Milwaukee Journal Sentinel has an obituary for him.

Hello Dave,

Lee has died? When? He couldn't have been that old. I never met him while I was at Kalmbach, but his model-making skills were among the best I'd ever seen, a true craftsman.
