Dr. Robert C. Lee, husband, father, grandfather, ophthalmologist and food aficionado passed away peacefully in Honolulu on July 25 at the age of 93. Following in the footsteps of his father, Robert H. Lee, Robert became an ophthalmologist, served as a captain in the US Army in Munich and raised his family in Honolulu. Although he practiced ophthalmology for over 45 years in Honolulu as well as on the neighbor islands, he most enjoyed the leadership role he took on as Bailli Provinciale of the world's oldest international gastronomic society, Chaine des Rotisseurs. "Bob Lee" as he was known to his friends, will best be remembered for his love of talking story with his patients while conducting retinoscopic refractions and his savoring of great food with good friends. He will be especially missed by his wife, Bertie; children, Stacy (Esther), Brent (Scott), Robbie, Kazuhiko Yoshida; four grand- children, Alex, Sydney, Mattias and Callum; nieces, Aung Thaitae (John Demello), Susan Yates (Michael) and nephew Todd Leong (Viya). He is predeceased by his sister, Barbara Leong. Arrangements Provided By:
