Helen Hummel Lee


Helen Hummel Lee

Helen Hummel Lee  1920-2010,    Long time Bellevue resident Helen Hummel Lee passed away peacefully on July 24th.  She was 90. 

Born in Miami Oklahoma, Mrs. Lee spent much of her youth in Greeley Colorado until marrying her childhood sweetheart Howard M. Lee in 1944.  The couple moved to Seattle in 1946 where Mr. Lee was employed as a Boeing engineer.   The couple moved to Bellevue in 1957.  

Mrs. Lee was a life member of the Meydenbauer Bay Yacht Club and a member of Bellevue Christian Church for nearly 50 years.   She had a lovely soprano voice and sang regularly in the church choir and with the Sweet Adelines barbershop chorus.  At one time Mrs. Lee was a sound judge for Sweet Adeline competitions. 

Mrs. Lee was preceded in death by her husband of 48 years, and her sister Velma Hummel Beauchamp.  She is survived by her sister Betty Hummel Davis of Fort Gibson Oklahoma and her brothers Howard Hummel and Steve Hummel of Santa Clarita CA and Bellvue CO, her children Mark (Kathy) Lee, Lynda Lee (Bob) Linse and her granddaughter, LeeAnne Linse. 

A celebration of Helen Lee’s life is scheduled for 2 PM, Friday, August 6th at Bellevue Christian Church, 10808 SE 28th, Bellevue.  In lieu of flowers, the family suggests remembrances be made to a favorite charity.

    Dear Mark and Kathy,

    My thoughts and prayers are with you. I would imagine that you would like the choir to sing for the service. I would like to get an email out to all of our past and present choir members regarding rehearsal time, etc. Could you provide me with titles that you would like sung?

    Thanks!
