Found peace on Saturday, December 19, 2020, age 80. Beloved husband of Holly for 52 years. Loving father of Heather (Mark) Walters. Proud grandpa of Ava. Preceded in death by his parents, Stanley and Agnes Novotny. Further survived by dear relatives and friends.

Lee was born in Minneapolis, Minnesota. His parents moved to Montfort, WI where Lee attended Montfort High School.  Upon graduation, Lee served in the US Army, stationed in Germany.

Lee’s career in sales spanned 50 years and he enjoyed his time traveling and spending time with family and friends. Those who knew him well loved hearing all his stories.  Lee enjoyed nothing more than hosting a party or going to one, cheering on the Packers, and finding good restaurants and bars.  Lee will be remembered as a fun-loving guy, missed, but not forgotten.

A gathering will be held at Krause Funeral Home, 21600 West Capitol Drive, Brookfield, Wisconsin on Friday, January 15, 2021, 1:00 PM – 2:00 PM. Celebration of Life at 2:00 PM.

In lieu of flowers, memorials appreciated to AngelsGrace Hospice or The Alzheimer’s Association.

The family would like to thank AngelsGrace Hospice for their care and compassion.

Lee was the first neighbor to introduce himself to us when we moved in next door to him. He and holly, along with heather will always be fondly remembered by our entire family.

Our prayers to Lee’s family. We met Lee and Holly as children when they came to our family’s house in Milwaukee to make Italian sausage with my parents. He will be remembered as a boisterous personality with a ready smile and a big heart. ♥️
