In the letter, Questlove called his father “the Greatest Teacher in my life” and went on to thank him for all the moments in their lives but especially “for the last 2 conversations we had.”
“I understand why you were so hard on me praying I didn’t succumb to a fate not meant for a teenager in west Philly in the mid 80s,” he wrote. “I didn’t understand it at the time. But I appreciate it now.”
Lee was best known as the lead singer for Lee Andrews and The Hearts, the Philly Duwop group that rose to success in the late 1950’s.
