Lee was born on November 13th, 1930, in Trails End Pennsylvania and he lived a long, happy, and fulfilling life until the golden age of 94 until his passing on April 30th, 2025.
In Lee's time spent here on Earth he helped raise a family with his high school sweetheart Alice Benner, while fulfilling his role as a proud educator in Bucks County for over 35 years where he helped serve the children of the community as both a teacher and principal. After retirement many happy years were spent with his wife and daughter traveling as well as fishing and hunting when he could. He was a proud father, grandfather, and great grandfather.
Lee leaves behind a daughter, Cheryl Wilson, Son-in-law Clinton Wilson, three grandchildren Nicholas, Lian, and Austin, and his two great grandchildren, Kayley and Grayson.
He is preceded in death by his wife Alice Benner, whom he will be laid to rest alongside in New Berlin, Pennsylvania.
