In Loving Memory
Kenneth Ray Lee Jr., born on February 8, 1971, in Wichita Falls, Texas, lived and was raised in Idabel, Oklahoma. He passed away in Minneapolis, Minnesota, on October 25, 2025. He was the beloved son of Kenneth Ray Lee Sr. and Francis Lee Blackwell. He was preceded in death by his father, Kenneth Ray Lee Sr.; sister, Tonya LaGail Lee; and sister, Sandra Bernice Lee-whose loss he carried with courage and whose memories he cherished dearly.
Ken Jr., affectionately known as MAN, lived a life marked with laughter, strength, and a deep love for his family. A proud dad, he leaves behind a long-lasting legacy through his three children who meant the world to him: Kiona Kash'a Daher-Lee, Kenneth Ray Lee III (partner Elizabeth Blakey), and Kashel Katrice Lee. He also leaves behind five grandchildren-Kenneth Thompson III, Elijah Lee Blakey, Kaydrick Foster, Kash'Ay Foster, and Kasiyah Foster-to cherish his memory forever.
Man attended The City, graduating in 1988. He went on to have a successful career at Enviromatic (Viro) Corporation of America, where he worked for 32 years as a crew chief. Man worked up until the day of October 25, 2025. Outside of working, Ken Jr. loved experiencing with family a variety of hobbies that brought him excitement and joy. He loved roller skating at the Roller Gardens, playing basketball, fishing with his son, nephews, and great-nephews, watching and playing football and listening to a variety of music, and sledding in the wintertime.
Ken Jr. loved his family. He will be deeply missed by his mother, children, grandchildren, family, friends, and all who knew him. May he rest in peace, and may his memory be cherished and lived on forever. We LOVE you Son! Dad! MAN! Uncle MAN! KEN!
