Clinton Lee Obituary

CLINTON LEE Clinton Lee, 81, passed away on November 23, 2025, surrounded by loved ones. Born on June 22, 1944, he was the middle son of Samuel W.S. and Ilene T. Lee. He is survived by his wife of 55 years, Patricia Au Lee, daughter Cathlynn and granddaughter Kylie. His brothers Winston (Connie), Elton (June) and their families also survive him. Clinton graduated from Kaimuki High School (1962) and the University of Hawaii (1968). After several years of working other jobs, he became the owner of Associate Chemical & Supply in 1980. As a distributor of laundry and dry cleaning products, he thrived on serving his many customers, even after his retirement in 2020. Golfing several times weekly also brought him much enjoyment and lasting friendships. A Celebration of Life will be held at Waialae Country Club, on Saturday, March 14. Visitation begins at 1:00 pm, with program at 2:00 pm. Family requests no flowers. Arrangements Provided By: Diamond Head Mortuary Chapel
