历史

Gerald Kwok Wing LEE was born on August 31, 1920, in Victoria, BC, to father Cecil Sit-Shin Lee and mother Grace Won Cumyow. He grew up in Victoria before moving to Vancouver during the Great Depression.

At the age of 24 during WWII, Gerald enlisted in the U.S. Navy. As there were limited employment opportunities in Vancouver at the time, he felt this was the best choice to make a better life for himself. He was assigned as a minesweeper in the Pacific Ocean. Upon his discharge, he received his U.S. citizenship and made the country his home until until his death.

After being discharged from military service, Gerald attended a vocational school and studied radar equipment. After completing his studies, he headed to San Francisco where he embarked upon a 32-year career as a radio technician with United Airlines. His career there developed what would become a lifelong love of travel and enjoying new cuisines.

Gerald married Bernice Jean Moy on August 18, 1950 in Los Angeles. The couple had one daughter together: Sabrina Lee (known after marriage as Sabrina Lee Vasquez).

He passed away on June 6, 2008.
