I worked with Lee at Forms Pro for many years. He was a great co-worker and always had fun with him on the job. He would share his tuna fish sandwiches with me that Judy made because I told him she made them just like my mom used to! Always dedicated to the job and he truly cared about all of our customers. My sympathies to your family as I'm glad he was a part of my life and made work enjoyable!

Lee sure will be missed, although I haven't seen him since 1964 when we "The Venturas" disbanded and he got married. That's when Pat B., (drummer), and myself (Bass & singer) joined the Marine Corps. We met Lee when I was playing music with the "Chancellors", we kicked out our Lead Guitar, Danny Lee, and took on Lee S. and played lots of gigs throughout WI and IL. I still have pictures of the old bands. We sure had a lot of fun together, I could tell your grankids some GREAT stories. You were a great Rock & Roller Lee. I'll bet that you are playin' a MEAN Harp now. Rod Lukes (Bass & Harmonica)

Lee and I, along with Jim Hanson and Lowell Pomeroy formed he Del Rays in the summer of 1964.He was an excellent lead guitar player and I learned many new songs from him. I wil be forever grateful to him for introducing me to an instrumental called " Lariat", a tune recorded by the Legends of Milwaukee. Lariat became our theme song and we opened wi h it every night. Lee was a good man, may he Rest In Peace.

Sorry to hear of Lee’s passing. He was a great co-worker. As Michelle mentioned, Lee was very generous with his sandwiches. Peace to the whole Swenson Family.
