Lance provided a spark to Arthritis Exercise class. He insisted on knowing everyone’s name and greeting everyone by name each class. He will be missed.

This is such sad news. I remember Lance working for our family electrical business, always such a nice man. Always pleasant to be around, and a cruel word spoken about anyone. Rest in Peace.

Lance was an amazing, kind and generous human being who supported secular youth nationwide through his vital contributions to scholarship assistance and college readiness programs. His philanthropic vision had a significant impact on the academic trajectories of Gen Z college students, and his commitment to those who will be the first in their families to go to college was profound. Thank you, Lance. You will be sorely missed.
