Gerald Edward Lee Jr. passed away peacefully in January 2026 in Fort Worth, Texas. He was a devoted father, brother, friend, cook, and a dedicated veteran of the United States Army who was deeply loved by all who were fortunate enough to know him.

Family and friends will forever cherish the memories they shared with Gerald. He was a gentle and caring man with a heart of gold. Stubborn and strong-willed, like any good brother, Gerald had his own way of showing love, even when he did not always say it in the ways others expected.

Gerald was a passionate cook whose meals were so satisfying and comforting that you could not help but feel full of love. He also had a strong affinity for Bone Thugs-N-Harmony, rivaling even his next-door neighbor's devotion, and was once convinced by his younger brother, Marcus, that the two of them would become rappers together someday.

Above all else, Gerald was a loving and devoted father who would have done anything in the world for his son, Christian.

Gerald's life was cut far too short, and his absence will be deeply felt. However, his memory will live on in the hearts and lives of all those he touched. He will be remembered as an angel watching over his family and friends.

Gerald Edward Lee Jr. will always be remembered. We love you, Gerald, and you will forever live on in our hearts.
