William T. Dee, JR. Obituary

Dee, JR. William T. May 27, 1949-November 20, 2025 William T. Dee, Jr., 76, of Upper Darby, died on November 20, 2025. Born May 27, 1949, in Maryland, he was the son of the late Jessie and William Dee and the husband of the late Lizabeth Dee. A proud Vietnam veteran, Bill spent more than 50 years in the bar and restaurant business, where he formed lifelong friendships. He lived in Havertown, PA, Des Moines, IA, Corning, NY, and Bethel Park, PA, making friends, "holding court," sharing stories, and making people laugh. He is survived by his sister, Dorothy Brooks/Smith (Alan); his brothers- and sisters-in-law; his children, Jennifer Dee-Yuzuk (Mark Yuzuk) and William ("Billy") Dee III (Maura); and his six grandchildren: Sam, Nate, and Ben Yuzuk, and Billy IV, Lincoln, and Libby Dee, who brought him his greatest joy. He is also survived by many cousins, nieces, and nephews. He was predeceased by his brothers James and Christopher Dee. A Viewing will be held Friday, Dec. 5, 2025, 9:00 A.M. - 10:15 A.M., at St. John Neumann Church, Bryn Mawr, followed by a Mass of Christian Burial. Interment will be at Saints Peter and Paul Cemetery. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the American Kidney Foundation.
