Pat was born in St. Paul, Minnesota on October 25, 1938 to Richard Braun and Mary Jacobsen (nee Morri).  She graduated from White Bear Lake High School in 1956 and later married Marvin ("Sonny") Lee.  In 1969 when the kids were old enough, she began working outside the home and in 1972 began employment with Control Data and retired in 1990.  She spent her retirement years in Pine City for a time and eventually in White Bear Lake, MN.  Pat loved to travel, she was an avid cribbage player, and her hobbies included reading, knitting, puzzles, and window shopping and visiting her favorite tearoom in downtown White Bear Lake.  She loved spending time with her family and friends. Pat spent many winters in Florida where she loved to take care of her flowers, hang out with friends, and visit the beaches.  She was fun loving, thoughtful, kind, and generous and will be greatly missed.
