Dino T. Lee's Obituary
Dino T. Lee, a native of Mobile, Alabama, was born on October 6, 1963 to the late Gwendolyn Lee Hill. He was a graduate of Lillie B. Williamson High School. Following high school, he relocated to Atlanta, GA where he attained a degree in Electronics from DeVry Institute of Technology.
Dino was a loving father, great friend, and dear companion whose smile, laughter, and personality would light up a room. Everyone loved his infectious laugh and jovial disposition, as well as his propensity to hold a lively intellectual debate in any venue. His culinary skills were divine, and he was often called on to make his famous gumbo, deep fried turkeys, turkey necks, and grilled meats. Dino was an entrepreneur with sharp (and tough) negotiation skills as well as a diverse portfolio of contacts and business partners. Additionally, he was the biggest, loudest, most loyal and passionate die-hard Atlanta Falcons fan, despite being from Alabama. Dino was a man that truly loved his family and friends; he touched our lives in such a way that we will always carry great memories with us.
Dino was preceded in death by his mother, Gwendolyn Lee Hill. He is survived by his father, Eddie Hill, Jr.; loving companion, Athena Cooper; daughters, Yaquita Porter, Candace Lee, TaNeeka (Franco) Hinds, Monica Lee, and Alexus Cooper; grandchildren (G-babies), Davion Essic, Makayla Gibson, Cameron Hinds, Taylor Hinds, and Paxton-Tyler Paul; aunts, uncles, cousins, and a host of other close family and friends.
