Honoring the man, the myth, the legend.

In 2015 I stepped out on my patio to speak with a man I had never met who offered me something I could have never dreamed of, and opportunity to work from home as a new mom. I set up a small desk, got to work, and 10 years later, I am still so grateful Dennis took a chance on me and changed my family’s life for the better.

-Jessica Baddeley, Leeway Inspections, Director of Operations

I am so very sad to hear this news…..I’ve worked with Dennis & Leeway for over 20 years at this point. Dennis was always amazing and so very helpful whenever I reached out. He will truly be missed and remembered fondly. My heart goes out to all of you during this difficult time.

 - Loan Administration Supervisor, OVCB

I only had the opportunity to speak with Dennis once, when your company first interviewed me via zoom.  But anywhere in the "real estate" business, when we speak to someone, even for a first time, it always seems as though you knew that person for a long time, and always had stories to share.  

I'm sure he will be missed by all, but I am confident in the team to carry on Dennis's legacy and make the company even bigger and stronger. 

- Joe, Field Inspector

I am so sorry for your loss and know that Dennis was very much appreciated by us all.  I have work with Leeway at multiple banks and have always been so appreciated of the service and quality of work that is provided which is a testimony to Dennis. 

Our heart goes out to the family during this difficult time and please know that we have them in our hearts and minds. 

- VP Business Banking Officer, Bank of Stockton

THANK YOU VERY MUCH for sharing this legacy story of Mr. Lee. 

Actually, I have always been pleased to be a part of this work, but now I feel even more deeply about who I work with and the integrity of Leeway.

-Cynthia, Field Inspector 

I am very sorry, he was a GOOD MAN who will be missed by all who knew him.

We have a long standing relationship with Dennis long before I came here, and I have been here 10 years. The original senior credit manager actually worked with Dennis before he started his own Inspection Company.

Anyway, he will always be in our thoughts and prayers as we go on through our daily business.

Heart breaking...

I met Dennis at a men's conference in Redding. Good guy. SOLID guy. 

Thanks and blessings to you guys, the wonderful staff you have.  Will be praying for you guys.

 Dennis is glory bound.  

-Michael, Field Inspector

I am so sorry to hear this! I remember meeting Dennis a couple times when I worked with Umpqua Bank several years ago and he was genuinely helpful and kind.

My condolences.

 - Construction Loan Administrator, Northwest Bank

About 12 years ago I was volunteering in our church office here in Walnut Creek Ca.

I answered the phone and it was Dennis looking for someone in this area to do photo inspections.  After hearing what was involved in the work, I told him that I would be available and have been doing it ever since.

 My prayers are with you all and his family.

-Mick, Field Inspector

Your dad was not only a trusted business associate but also a friend over the years. I had the privilege of working closely with him and witnessing firsthand his integrity, intelligence, and kindness. His presence left a lasting impact on the inspection industry and everyone who knew him, myself included.
