Dorothy L. (Brown) Lee

of Clinton, AR

March 8, 1919 - March 29, 2021

Dorothy Lee (Brown) Lee, 102, of Clinton, AR, went to be with the Lord Monday, March 29, 2021. She was born March 8, 1919, in Damascus, AR.

Dorothy was preceded in death by her husband, Vern Edward Lee; her parents, Malcolm Sylvester and Alma Retta (Nash) Brown of Conway; three brothers, Darl Dean, John Ed both of Clinton, Joe L of Rolla, MO, and a grandson, Jason Benjamin Lee of Russellville, AR.

Surviving are her three children, Vivian Bankster (John) of Clinton, David (Becky) of Russellville, Scott (Deirdre) of Sherwood; two grandsons, Kenneth Lee (Jessica) of Raleigh, NC, Michael Lee (Angela) of Madison, AL, and four great-grandchildren, Kaitlyn, Ethan, Josephine, and Oliver.

Dorothy was very easygoing and a strong Christian. She and Vern never argued or even raised their voices at each other. They enjoyed traveling with their Airstream trailer and visited all states but Hawaii, plus Canada, Mexico, and Central American. In retirement, they traveled north or south depending on the season and loved summering in Yellowstone. Winters were frequently in Mission, TX, where they made many friends.

She was very artistic and produced many oil paintings that adorn her families' homes. She was an avid gardener and even mowed her own yard until she was 90.

A Memorial Service will be held May 1, 2021, 10:00am at Roller-McNutt Funeral Home, 650 Central Landing Boulevard, Conway, AR. In lieu of flowers, please donate to the Alzheimer's Association.

Visiting with grandma Dorothy was always high on the list when making a trip to Arkansas. I enjoyed her stories the most. Stories about where she lived, what she did when growing up, and stories about funny things the kids (David, Vivian, and Scott) said when little. I am glad that David took the time to record Dorothy telling several stories before the dementia got too bad. I will miss her, but glad she is in heaven with her husband and brothers now.

Aunt Dorothy was such a peaceful person! I spent many summers staying at her house. She had patience with me trying to learn how to sew. I think she had to tell me to slow that machine down! It's hard to think of our family without her, but we will carry on. Love you all! I want to see you when it's safe again.
