Kevin's obituary

Kevin Leroy Lee, 65, died unexpectedly on April 12th from a heart attack, but was not found in his apartment until April 20th when he co-workers became concerned that he had not been to work in a week. His loss was completely unexpected and the family is shocked and deeply saddened.

Kevin was born on August 13 to his beloved mother Gloria Quinonese Lee in New York City. Kevin attended Art & Design H.S. and was passionate about designing and music. After graduating high school, Kevin moved to the Bronx, and later relocated to Georgia where his sister's and their children had previously moved to.

Kevin worked in the mailroom at NBC for many years and befriended his best friend there, Nelson in 1980. Throughout the past 40 years they remained in touch as friends and when on vacation, Nelson would visit with Kevin here in Georgia.

Kevin loved everything nostalgic. His idles were Marilyn Monroe and Ronnie Spector who was the lead singer for the group the Ronettes back in 1963.

Anyone who knew Kevin to be living, caring, passionate yet very humble. He had a big laugh and was always smiling and pleasant. Kevin had an immense passion for music, and he loved television and movies. He started collecting movies but once he got a Roku it was on. He could watch everything he loved from old movies to newer ones. Kevin’s family and friends will miss more than words can say.

Contributions in memory of Kevin can be made to his family towards his funeral expenses. There will be a funeral service held at April 30, 2021, at 3:00 p.m. at the Grissom-Clark Funeral Home in Atlanta, Georgia. If you cannot attend the service, please consider watching a live view and posting on www.grissom-clarkfh.com for the live stream.
