Colin Michael Lee

Colin Michael Lee, 23, of Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania, passed away peacefully on April 8, 2026, surrounded by love after a lifelong battle with cystic fibrosis. He was born on August 15, 2002, to Michelle Lee.

Colin is survived by his mother, Michelle Lee; his devoted sisters, Amelia Lee (John), Dori Lee (David), and Dina Valentine; his cherished grandmother, Doris Lee; and his dedicated caregivers, his grandmother Doris ,his aunt Dawn Lee and his sisters Amelia and Dori who gave him unwavering love and support throughout his life. He also leaves behind his beloved girlfriend, Michelle Torres, along with many aunts, uncles, cousins, and countless friends who were like family to him.

He was preceded in death by his grandfather, Herbert "Mike" Lee.

Colin found joy in life's simple and beautiful moments—feeling the sun on his face, especially on the beaches of Puerto Rico, and spending time doing what he loved most. He had a passion for podcasts, music, and video games, and he lived his life to the fullest despite the challenges he faced. Colin also had a generous spirit; he took pride in raising funds alongside his friends—his extended family in the Go Getters—to provide Thanksgiving meals for the homeless and for children in need.

The family would like to extend heartfelt thanks to the nurses and staff at DaVita Dialysis for their compassion, care, and dedication.

Colin was deeply loved by all who knew him. His strength, kindness, and vibrant spirit will never be forgotten. He will be missed beyond words and forever held in the hearts of those who loved him."
