To Lance’s family,
Lance was one of the kindest and most decent men I have had the pleasure of meeting in my life. I got to know him at R.R. Donnelley during the early 1980’s. I only saw him a few times since then, however only good memories and pleasant dealings with him. May God bless you all and that he rest in peace.
