Frederick "Fred" Lee

Frederick Paul Lee, age 83, of Clermont County, peacefully departed this life at Hospice of Anderson on Friday, November 7, 2025.

Left to cherish his memory are his wife of sixty years, Peggy Lee, daughter Katie (Mike) Woodring, son Mike (Shanna) Lee, grandchildren Morgan (Alex), Jackson, Zoe, Lily, and great-grandchildren Eleanor and Luna. Preceding him in death were his parents, Robert D. and Mona Lee, and siblings Mona Miller and Robert Lee.

Fred lived life to the fullest. In addition to being a devoted husband, loving father, and proud Papa, he was an Army veteran, amateur comedian, and beer connoisseur. Fred also spent much of his life refereeing soccer, having devoted more than forty years to the sport he loved most. His physical agility was nothing short of amazing, as he continued to referee well into his golden years because of his passion for the sport. He was inducted into the Mid-West Soccer Officials Association Hall of Fame in 2021 for his dedication and loyalty involving the improvement and promotion of Ohio High School Soccer.

Fred will be fondly remembered for his wonderful sense of humor, his kind and caring heart, and his willingness to lend a helping hand.

In keeping with Fred's final wishes, there will be no funeral service. In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations be made to Alzheimer's Foundation of America in his memory.
