He is survived by his wife Betsy, his four children, Paul, Mark, Rebecca, and Sue as well as his grandchildren Amber, Adelaide, Paul, Austin, Colin, Brandon, Hannah, CJ, and Grace. He has three great grandchildren, Sean, Ryan, and Conner. Lee was born April 5, 1932. As a youth he enjoyed building model airplanes. As a young adult his older brother Dean gifted him a Chevrolet that was manufactured the year of his birth; he was hooked on antique 1932 Chevys from then on. He attended GA Tech and received a masters degree in Aerospace Engineering. Lee served in the US Air Force, NASA, and the Naval Air Training Command. Later he pursued and secured a medical degree from Emory. He spent the rest of his working life serving as a surgeon of Urology at DeKalb Medical Center in Decatur, GA. After retirement, in 1998, Lee enjoyed family time, working on his antique Chevys, and woodworking. Lee was a faithful husband and father from start to finish and will be fondly remembered and missed.
In lieu of flowers, the family has requested donations to St. Judes Hospital or Salvation Army.
