Lee was born and raised in Napa.  After graduating from Napa High, he served in the U.S. Air Force before attending Sonoma State University, where he earned a Bachelor of Science degree in 1972.  For 10 years, he was the Managing Line Cook at Elmer's Restaurant in North Napa.  He also managed the Title Department for the Napa Office of Fidelity National Title Company on Main Street from 1989 to 2005.  It was at that point that Lee began a five-year struggle with Alzheimer's disease that ended his life.
