Shiu (Susie) Tsing Lee January 5, 1923 ~ September 27, 2020

Susie started life in a small farming village in Taishan, Guangdong, China; living in Hong Kong, Washington D.C., and then Boise, Idaho. She married Shak Mon Lee and they immigrated to the United States. Together, they started a new life in America and raised 7 children. She was widowed in 1979.

Susie loved to sing and dance as a child and continued well into her adult life.  Her hobbies included cooking, gardening and sewing-crocheting, but her favorite was Mah Jong.

Along with her husband, daughter and son-in-law, they founded and operated the Golden Star Chinese Restaurant beginning in 1965, a community favorite. Susie spent many hours behind the cash register smiling and greeting customers who then became her friends. She had a busy life and still prioritized time with her large family, dining and playing Mah Jong with her friends. She was so thankful for her good friends, and the wonderful people who looked out after her.

Susie is survived by her children, Shirley (Larry-deceased) Louie, Lana (Wendland) Quan, Dr. Hoi (Yvonne) Lee, Anna (Phil-deceased) Battaglia, Lilly (Jesse) Tam, Jeanie (Joe) Huff, and Sam Lee.

Susie leaves behind many grandchildren and great grandchildren to continue her legacy of family, adventure, and happiness. She will be missed dearly!
