Choony Lee, New York, NY— Choony Lee has passed away following a long and brave fight with cancer. After being diagnosed with stage IV cancer in 2017, Choony’s battle with the aggressive illness was marked by unwavering strength and a powerful love of life. She continued to find joy in the lives of her loved ones, even attending a friend’s wedding anniversary celebration just weeks before her passing, where she danced the night away despite her declining health.
Throughout her illness, Choony’s family—her husband Toshi and daughters Colette and Esme—devoted themselves to caring for her, making significant sacrifices to ensure she had the support she needed. As Choony’s condition worsened, the emotional, physical, and financial burdens on her family grew, and they now face the difficult transition of life without her.
In her memory, a GoFundMe campaign has been launched by friends and former Soh Daiko members to assist the Lee-Kawanishi family with medical expenses, funeral costs, and living expenses during this challenging time. The goal of the campaign is to raise $45,000, and any contribution will be deeply appreciated as her family navigates this painful loss.
Choony Lee’s legacy will live on through the love and memories she created with those around her. Her family and friends will cherish her spirit, and the support of the community continues to bring comfort during this heart-wrenching time.
Our thoughts and prayers are with Choony Lee’s family during this difficult period. May her memory be a blessing.
