Words seem inadequate to express the shock and sorrow at the death of Lee Eshleman, of the comedy/acting team of Ted and Lee. According to the official press release, "Lee took his own life after succumbing to a long battle with depression." We mourn the loss of the talent and faith that ministered to so many through the medium of comedy. Our hearts go out to Lee's family and friends as well as to Ted Swartz and all of the persons who will feel Lee's absence so profoundly. At ADNet, we continue our efforts to help individuals and families affected by mental illness and many other disabilities to find healing and hope in our communities and churches.
