Robert Lee Obituary
May 5, 1944 - December 3, 2024
Kennewick, Washington - Robert Bruce Lee (Bruce) passed peacefully in his home on Dec. 3rd, 2024 shortly after losing his wife to cancer.
Bruce was born on May 5th, 1944 in Spokane, WA. He graduated from Shadle Park High School and then went on to join the Air Force. He was honorably discharged after serving 4 years in Okinawa.
After exiting the military Bruce got a job in Spokane as a repossessor. He then went on to his career as a credit manager. That job took him to Moses Lake where he met the love of his life, Shannon Maureen Brooks.
They were married, started a family and then settled in Kennewick, WA.
Bruce was an amazing husband, father and artist. As a hobby, he became a cartoonist for the Spokesman-Review. He and Shannon loved to play golf and would play in a number of tournaments. They also loved throwing parties and would dance the night away.
Bruce had a deep love for his family and loved when the grandkids came over to visit. He was a die hard fan for the Seahawks and the WA State Cougars. He was a remarkable man.
Bruce is preceded in death by his father, Thoralf Johannes Lee, his mother, Mary Lee Lee, his wife Shannon Maureen Lee and is survived by his daughter, Shanna Seholm, son, Gerald Lee, brothers, Craig Lee and Alan Lee and Grandkids, Logan Seholm, Alexis Seholm and Haven Wolf.

My heartfelt condolences to the Lee Family! I worked with Bruce back in the 70's at Full Circle (PSC). I remember he was a fun person to work with and play golf for dimes many a times at Warden Golf Course. I did have the chance to congratulate him at a small gathering for his retirement. RIP Greg Robertson. Prosser, WA
