Michael Lee

Michael Warren Lee, 69, of Greensboro, passed away Thursday, January 30, 2025 at Wesley Long Hospital in Greensboro from complications of the flu.

Michael was born on October 18, 1955, the son to the late Olin Donald Lee and Maxine Fox Lee.

Michael graduated from Asheboro High School in 1974 and started AVS Catering in 1979 where he served as president until his death. He retired from active participation in the business in January 2013 due to an illness requiring a bone marrow transplant and handed the reigns over to his sons, Justin and Zac.

Michael's love and talent for music was a huge part of his life as he served in many capacities as a licensed music minister. He loved playing and singing with his family and sharing this love with his grandchildren.

Although he loved his music, that love paled in comparison to his love for his God and family. He was blessed with 4 grandchildren; Rowen, Parker, Katelyn and Grayson, that sustained him during his twelve year illness. He lived to love and encourage them with all his heart.

He is survived by his wife, Joanna Lee; sons, Justin Lee (Hailey), Zac Lee (Heather); sister, Penny Worley (Randall) and brother, Randy Lee (Tina).

Michael touched many lives by "being a blessing" to not only those who knew him, but also to many whom never met him. His great statue was only surpassed by his tremendous compassion and generosity.

A funeral service will be conducted at 3:00, Sunday, February 9, 2025 at Central Church, 300 S. Main St, Asheboro, NC. The family will receive friends from 1:30 until 2:30 p.m., Sunday, prior to the service in the Family Life Center at the church.

Michael will lie in repose on Saturday, February 8, 2025, from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., at Ridge Funeral Home.

In lieu of flowers, memorials may be made to Vintage Church, 650 W Academy St., Randleman, NC 27317, or give online at give.vintagechurch.net. and reference in memory of Mike Lee.
