Fred Lee Jr. Obituary
Fred Robert Lee Jr., a beloved husband, brother, uncle, and friend, passed away on January 30, 2025, at the age of 80. Born on January 8, 1945, in Greenville, Indiana, Fred was the son of the late Fred Robert Lee, Sr. and Leona Edwards Lee.
With a career spanning over two decades, Fred dedicated himself to the art of barbering, where he not only honed his craft but also built lasting relationships with his clients. His personality and steady hands made him a respected figure in his community.
Fred found joy in fishing and frequently enjoyed playing cards with friends and family. He was also proud of his rose garden, where he poured his heart into cultivating beautiful blooms.
He is survived by his loving wife of nearly 48 years, Cindy Lee; his sisters, Mary Dodge and Linda (Lanny) Davis; and his dear nephew, Scott Davis. He was preceded in death by his brother-in-law, Richard C. Moore.
Fred will be entombed privately at Kraft-Graceland Memorial Park in New Albany.
