Jerry Lee, 69, of Williston, ND, passed away Friday, November 17, 2023 in Williston, ND.

Jerry Lee was born to Kermit and Violet Lee on November 28, 1953 in Williston, North Dakota.

He was raised and educated in Williston, North Dakota.

Jerry had an interest in carpentry and later started his own company called “Lee’s Construction”.

Jerry loved spending time with his four legged companion, Whiskey. They enjoyed hunting, going to Gun Shows and especially going for rides in Jerry’s pickup.

Jerry’s daily schedule was predictable. On any given day at 3:00, you would find Jerry at Lonnie’s Café for coffee time hanging out with his buddies. Many problems were solved and daily issues were taken care of during that time. And giving the waitresses a hard time was always expected.

If you were going to visit Jerry on Tuesday, make sure you came early in the day. At 6:00 he was headed to the gun club, something he very much enjoyed and brought a smile to his face.

Some of Jerry’s hobbies were fishing and telling others his “Fishing Stories”. Along with fishing, he spent many days hunting with Whiskey by his side. He also liked going to the Trenton Casino, Gun Shows, throwing darts and shooting at competitions. He was an avid collector of various things.

Jerry is survived by daughter, Heidi Lee; step-son, Cody Tofte; brothers, Vernon Vollum, Kermit “Bubba” (Wanda) Lee, Joe (Diana) Lee; brother-in-law, Duke Slater; numerous cousins, nieces and nephews.

He is preceded in death by his parents, Violet and Kermit Lee; first wife, Karen Davis; daughter, Karry Lee; sisters, Terry Lou Slater, Carolann Lee, Barb Lee; sister-in-law, Mary Vollum; niece, Stephanie Lee; great-niece, Amaya Acheaw and man’s best friend, his dog Whiskey.
