Brian Black Obituary
Lee was born on July 28, 1953 in Cleveland, OH to the late Theodore and Helen (Noonan) Black.
Lee was employed as an equipment operator with Castalia Trenching for many years. He enjoyed traveling, reading, camping, and fishing, and especially treasured his visits to the islands, most notably Put-in-Bay. Above all, Lee cherished the time he spent with his dear friends, creating memories that will be fondly remembered by all who knew him.
Lee is survived by his loving companion of thirty-nine years, Vickie Tripp. He is also survived by his brother, Bruce Black; and his sister, Robin Black.
A Private Graveside service will be held at Milan Cemetery, Milan, Ohio. Groff Funeral Homes & Crematory - Milan is assisting the family with arrangements.
