John Hiltron Lee, age 87, passed away on Friday, November 24 in Salt Lake City, Utah. He passed away due to complications from a heart attack he suffered in late October. He is now in Heaven with his wife, siblings, his father and mother.
He was born in San Mateo to Fook Lee and SooHoo Shee Lee. He married Lillian Mar on November 17, 1963. He is survived by his sons, Michael and Matthew; daughter-in-law, Hanh; grandson, Nolan.
We'll always remember his smile, laughter and the time we had together. From traveling to China multiple times to fishing to spending time in the Northwest with us, we'll greatly miss him. Dad moved to Salt Lake City in the early 1970's. He loved the outdoors and could be found hunting and fishing on many weekends when we were growing up. As time went on he became an avid fisherman and traveler, spending many days at Strawberry reservoir, Willard Bay or traveling with us. And like Mom, Dad liked to shop. Maybe more than Mom. Now they are finally together again and enjoying each other. We miss both of you more than you know.
Visitation in Salt Lake City for family and friends will beSaturday, December 2, from11 am to 2 pm, at Larkin Sunset Lawn, 2350 E. 1300 S.
