FROM THE WEBSITE: Today (May 15, 2014) another IBMer told me why he never returned my last couple of phone calls. I was stunned to hear he had passed way last year. Attached is photo for Lee's family and Mingi.

Lee and I were in the same 2010 New Hire group at IBM and I got him onto my first project. They were interested in Lee because it was an army project calle Army Career Tracker or ACT. Our team won the 2012 IBM Innovation Award for our work on this project.

In 2011, Mingi and I did a 5,000ft parachute jump together with Lee cheering us on the ground. He wanted Mingi to feel what it was like to parachute.

I am stunned that he pasted away. I hope he is looking down at this moment from heaven and smiling.
