Thomas E. Lee

LEE, Thomas E., passed away on February 10, 2026, at the age of 70. He was born on July 14, 1955, in Cincinnati, OH, the son of the late Harry E. and Elizabeth (nee Doll) Lee.

Tom is survived by his devoted wife of almost 44 years Kim Lee (nee Harrington). Loving father of Kristen (Stuart) Nachman and Brandon (Daniela) Lee. Cherished Papa of Caroline and Jennifer. Dear brother of Debi (Ries) Riestenberg, Joy (John) Gilbert, Dan (Lynn) Lee, and Pam (John) Koenig. He is also survived by many nieces, nephews, other family, and friends.

Tom could be found playing pickleball with his many friends and family and being a standout in water aerobics at the Cheviot YMCA. He was a devoted UC fan and lifelong Reds fan (although not always a fan of the Reds ownership) and also enjoyed traveling to visit family in Washington DC and Houston as much as possible. He was an avid fan of the show The Curse of Oak Island and enjoyed discussing the show at length with anyone who would listen (a select / patient few people!) and loved watching the show weekly with his sister Joy. He had a zest for life that will be missed greatly.

Visitation will be held at on TUESDAY, February 17, 2026 at Our Lady of the Visitation Catholic Church, 3172 South Rd, Cincinnati, from 8:30 AM until time of Mass of Christian Burial at 9:30 AM.

In lieu of flowers memorials donations may be made to the HealthWell Foundation at 20440 Century Blvd., Ste. 250, Germantown, MD 20874.
