Frank Lee

Frank Lee passed away peacefully at home on Sunday, May 25, 2025, at the age of 81. 

Born at Abington Hospital and raised in Warminster, he was the son of Angelina Delaga and Harold Lee. Frank graduated from William Tennent High School and earned an associate degree from Bucks County Community College. 

He served two proud years in the U.S. Army, stationed in Germany with the HAWK missile program, earning recognition as an Expert Marksman and completing his tour with an honorable discharge. 

A hardworking man with grit and know-how, Frank held supervisory roles at Microcom the Book Bindery and RMI Gross Givens before becoming CEO of Small Parts Assembly. After retiring, he spent 12 joyful years at Fashion Farms, where he could always be found under the wide-open sky, doing what he loved. 

Frank was a true cowboy at heart — always ready with a story, a grin, and a steady hand. He had a passion for horseback riding and boating, handling twin engines like a seasoned captain. Whether on a tractor or behind the reins, he found peace in motion. He took pride in his mowing skills—especially behind the wheel of a zero-turn mower—and was never afraid to get his boots dirty. He also ran a successful dog kennel and was a blue-ribbon trainer of Dobermans and Shepherds. 

He is survived by his loving wife of 36 years, Diane Lee; his son Michael Lee and wife Kelly; stepchildren Kelly Ruddell, Kate Harmon, and Stephen Quigley; and 12 grandchildren: Sophia, Simon, Lucy, Maisie, Peter, Jacob, Erin, April, MacKenzie, Stephen, Victoria, and Tesslyn. He is also survived by his sister, Barb Rutherford. He was preceded in death by his brother, Harry Lee. 

Services will be private with the family. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Fox Chase Cancer Center in Frank’s memory.
