Lee was born on September 18, 1937 to Raphael and Anna (Mischel) Braun. He was the 4th of 6 children. He grew up and attended schools in Haynes, ND. After graduation, Lee joined the U.S. Air Force. While stationed in California, he met S.P. and to this union his son was born. Lee and his son eventually returned to North Dakota, where Lee worked in road construction. This is when he met and married M.F. ;two children were added to the family. Lee spent many years working in the Hettinger and Haynes areas, ranching and farming, and working various other jobs. He began working in the oil fields during this time, and it was then that he met D.H. the love of his life. They married on October 28, 1983. In 1986, they moved to Newell, SD, where Lee began work for the State Highway Department, and later the City of Newell. This is where Lee and his wife retired and made their forever home. Lee was known around town for his gardening, winemaking, killing dandelions, his beautiful yard, bluntness, sly smile, work ethic, and his Catholic faith. He had lost most of his eyesight several years ago from his medical conditions, but he continued onward with his gardening and winemaking despite this setback. We are so grateful that Lee can now see again. He is survived by his wife; sons and their families; daughter, grandson, 4 stepchildren, sister-in-law, brother, and numerous step-grandchildren, nieces, and nephews.
