Keliah Jessica Lee

Keliah Jessica Ann Lee

Born October 15, 2002, in Colorado Springs, Colorado, Keliah Jessica Ann Lee passed away on September 9, 2025 at the age of 22. She made her home in Pueblo, Colorado.

Keliah was the beloved daughter of Danny and Isabel Lee and the youngest sibling to Gage Lee and Millicent Lee. She grew up in Pueblo after being born in Colorado Springs and built a life full of curiosity, creativity, and love for the world around her.

She worked at the northside Pueblo King Soopers as an overnight grocery clerk, where her coworkers remember her kindness, her humor, and her work ethic.

Keliah loved gardening and had a special passion for flowers, a love she shared with her grandmother who delighted in teaching her how to care for and grow them. Whether tending to bright blooms or filling her home with houseplants, gardening became one of the many ways she expressed her creativity and care. Beyond flowers, she loved going on adventures and had a special fascination for animal bones and bugs. She shared her home with two beloved cats, Missy and Ash, and at one point even raised jumping spiders. She had a deep love for all things creepy-crawly and a passion for music, especially My Chemical Romance and other bands in that genre. She cherished going to shows, listening to music, and spending time with her friends and family.

Keliah was funny, kind, adventurous, and loud in the best ways - boisterous and full of life. She had a heart for helping and caring for others, whether it was family, friends, coworkers, or strangers who needed a little kindness. She also carried the calm, caring, and quiet nature of her grandmother, blending both warmth and vibrant energy in everything she did.

She is survived by her parents, Danny and Isabel Lee; her brother, Gage Lee (Sloan), and her sister, Millicent Lee (Joel). She is also remembered by her grandparents, Alma Estella Lujan, George Norris, Ned Lee, Bruce and Sue Tuttle, and Frank and Debra Davis; her great-grandmothers, Elvira Lujan and Joyce Tuttle; her aunt and uncle, Heidi and Andrew Grant; and her cousin, James Grant.

She was preceded in death by her grandmother, Melanie Norris, and by her great-grandparents, Charles and Ann Lee, and Rayford and Sylvia Hefner.

Her life, though brief, will be honored at Fellowship of the Rockies church in Pueblo, CO, on October 6 at 11:00 a.m.

She touched so many lives and made those lives that much brighter, even while she struggled with her own darkness. Her life reminds us to hold on, to keep moving toward the light ahead. She will be dearly missed by all who knew her.
