Obituary

In 1959 he married his first wife, Rachel, and together they served on mission fields in Congo, Africa, as well as several Christian camping ministries in northern MI. They also made several mission trips to Russia. His legacy includes the hospitals, churches and schools he helped build and electrify in Congo, the lives impacted by his teaching, and his children and grandchildren who are following him in the faith. He is survived by their two sons, Stephen (Kathy) Lee and Jonathan (Andrea) Lee, six grandchildren, and one great granddaughter
