Patrick Lee Dies at 51

Reviewer and blogger Patrick Lee passed away earlier this month at the age of 51, according to TheaterMania.com.

Lee was the creator and writer of Justshowstogoyou.com, co-writer and co-founder of Show Showdown, and a regular contributor to TDF.com.

To write that reading this news blindsided me this morning is too much of an understatement.

Although we spoke on the phone once and exchanged pleasant emails over the past few years, we never had the chance to meet in person, since our schedules kept causing us to just miss each other. (He had come to review a Nosedive show, but I was off reviewing another show; we were scheduled to attend the same event once, but I had to cancel at the last minute.)

My thoughts are with his friends and loved ones.
