August 31, 1941 - September 22, 2023
In Loving Memory ~
It is with heavy hearts that the family of John Alfred Lee announce his passing on Friday, September 22, 2023.
John was born August 31, 1941 in Quill Lake, Saskatchewan to Jack and Margaret (Blair) Lee. John moved with his family to BC in 1945, growing up in the home his parents built in New Westminster.
John married the love of his life, Liisa, on August 26, 1967. After losing part of his left foot in a mining accident in Squamish in the early 70s, John returned to the Royal City with his wife and their two young sons. John went on to live a life full of new adventures in many of BC's and Alberta's beautiful cities and towns with his family before settling in Salmon Arm twenty years ago.
John is most well remembered as a kind and gentle family man, always with a smile or laugh to share.
John is predeceased by his wife and lifelong companion Liisa, his parents Jack and Margaret (Francois Dufresne), and brother Joseph.
He will be deeply missed by his loving sons Peter Lee and Robert (Heidi) Lee, by his sister Janet (John) MacNeil, his many extended family members, friends and neighbours, and by his fur baby, Daisy.
The family would like to express its gratitude to John's doctors, nurses, and team of carers for all the love and support you have shown John and his family.
