Many are grieving the loss of an important figure in the tech community.

Gary Tan, president and CEO of Y Combinators, took to Twitter to say, “Bob Lee’s death is a tragedy and huge loss for the tech community and for San Francisco. We must remember his life and works. We know so little about the circumstances and it’s too early to speculate what happened yet. That area is filled with cameras so we will find out soon.”

The Cash App creator is survived by two daughters and wife. He recently moved to Miami, Florida but came to San Francisco to visit for the day.
