JOHN LEE May 14, 1959 – January 20, 2023.
It is with great sadness that we announce the sudden passing of John Lee. He was only 63. John will be greatly missed by his wife, Joan and sons, Bryan and Austin and their partners, Tiffanie and Alison. Treasured son of Henry Pok Man Lee and So Kuen Lee. Beloved brother of Carol (Frank), Alice and Sandy (Jessica) and an exceptional fun-loving uncle to Derek, Lindsey (Tom), Kristen, Sarah, Brenden and Ryen. Dearly loved son-in-law to Lily Jung and the late Hugh Jung and brother-in-law to James Jung. John graduated from University of Toronto (B. Sc. 1982) where he made lifelong friends with whom he started his career in computer science. John was an IT professional and executive for over 40 years, leading and inspiring teams across numerous industry sectors (Accugraph; Scotia; Fidelity Investments; Aviva Canada; Pitney Bowes; SNC Lavalin; Black & MacDonald; and Dye & Durham). He liked nothing better than spending time with his family and cleaning. He was a woodworker and built furniture. He was a pianist and recently took up composing music. He touched the lives of many people with his smile, his generosity and his outward look on life. John will be sorely missed by all.
