Kenneth Jerome Lee, 57, passed away on March 11, 2024 in Indianapolis. Kenneth was born on April 11, 1966 to Bishop Clarence Isaac Jr., and Betty Jean (Mosley) Lee in Indianapolis. Kenneth graduated from Crawfordsville High School in 1984 and attended Wabash College where he double-majored in business and political science.
He was a proud member of Delta Tau Delta fraternity and was active in several Wabash intramural sports. He also was a frequent visitor to the Malcom X house on campus and was always so proud to help plan and attend annual town-gown Martin Luther King Jr. events. Kenneth served in the United States National Guard under the Montgomery County command.
He worked at Subaru-Isuzu, Atco Rubber Products, and Clarence Lee & Sons Scrap Iron. He was a member of One Way Pentecostal Apostolic Church under his father, Rev. Lee, and was also currently a member at the church under the leadership of his brother, Pastor Steven Lee. He was well-known as an active member of his community, coaching several youth sports teams and leaving a positive impact on the lives of countless young men.

Anyone that knew Kenneth knew that he had a deep love for the game of golf and co-founded his family's Cablanic Golf Tournament. He was also an ardent fan of the Pittsburg Steelers. Kenneth will be remembered for his keen ability to make everyone feel welcome, make you laugh until you cried, and to light up any room he walked into.

He is preceded in death by his father Bishop Clarence I. Lee, mother Betty Jean Lee, brothers Benjamin Lee, Clarence I. Lee Jr., and Charles A. Lee and his great love, Jennifer J. Whiteley.
