Memorial celebrations were held on the Law and Order set and at the home of Fred's sister, Roberta Chalfy Miller '66, in Sarasota, Fla.

He was a world traveler who spoke several languages and was also an aficionado of The Rocky Horror Picture Show. "He was funny, caring, generous and a natural teacher who shared his knowledge in a most engaging way," wrote his lifetime partner, Jacqueline Gottlieb. "He will always be loved very much by those who knew him and will be missed tremendously." Lee is survived by Jacqueline; his parents; his sister, Gail Mantelman '84; and many relatives and friends.
