Michael Richard Andrew Lee, aged 13, died on Friday, July 27th, 2018, in Wolf Point, MT. Born to Frederick Lee and Kimberly Evans in Great Falls MT.
Michael lived most of his life in Miles City MT. He first moved to Wolf Point to live with his father, in February of 2016, where he attended North Side School as a fifth grader. For sixth grade Michael, his father and his “Step, Step” Mom, Colleen moved to Townsend MT. Michael loved being in the mountains and loved to go fishing in the Missouri River. He made a lot of good friends in Townsend. For 7th grade the family moved back to Wolf Point, with the intent of making this their permanent home. Michael played Middle School Football and Basketball for the Wolf Point Wolves. Football was his passion in life, and he dreamed of becoming a professional NFL football player. He even talked about hoping to get a scholarship to go to the University of Wisconsin to play for the Badgers in college, because they “have a good football program” he would tell us. He was a die hard Seattle Seahawks football fan. Most of his wardrobe and his entire room was green and blue for them. He could tell you every player and what their stats were by heart. This last year Michael also developed a strong interest in basketball, and became a fan of the Boston Celtics. Besides sports Michael loved to play video games with his friends.
Michael came to love Wolf Point, and he made many really good friends at school, especially from the sports teams. His favorite subject was always math. Not to long ago Michael told us that he was looking forward to school starting up gain so he could see all his friends and he was counting down the days to football starting up again. Michael made his parents, Frederick Lee and his Step Mom Colleen Timmins-Lee, laugh every day. He was a big joker and love to tease them. He gave Colleen the gift of motherhood. They will miss his sarcastic comments, shy smile and relentless joking very much. Michael also spent a lot of time with his grandfather Bud Biery at his ranch in Rosebud MT. Michael loved to hang out with his grandpa.
Michael is survived by his father Frederick Lee, his Step-Mom Colleen Timmins-Lee, his sister Skylar Niles, his grandfather Bud Biery, his great-grandmother Geneva Biery, his aunt Jenny Demming, his cousins Kyra and Casey Demming and many other family members that loved him so much and will miss him terribly. He was preceded in death by his grandmother Katheren Jo Biery and his beloved mother Kimberly Duanne Evans. They are all together now.

I first met Michael when he was quite young and he left quite an impression on me. When he moved away I had no contact with him but I did not forget about him. His life mattered. He was important. I am thankful I shared a little part of his life. I pray God’s comfort for all of you who are mourning his loss.

Our hearts and prayers are with you through this time. May God grant you comfort and peace. I wish there was something we could say that could erase the pain, or if we could even say that we understand what you are going through. But that is something no one understands unless they have endured it. God Bless you and yours.

Fred, Colleen and Bud
There are no words to express the pain I feel for you all right now. Unfortunately, I do know your pain and I am praying that God will give you comfort and understanding, not just now but for always.
To Michael’s Friends…please remember that life is precious and that your life matters. Nothing that is happening today or in any tough moment is permanent. Tomorrow is another day and even if you get through minute by minute, you will get through. You have friends, family and others that love you.
Kadee Ryan says
Sending lots of thoughts and prayers to you all! May you be comforted today and in the days to come. You’ll always have a special angel with you each and everyday!!
Janiah Miles says
My condolences to the family on the loss of your loved one. Losing someone you love is truly difficult and I know Michael will be missed. Please know our Heavenly Father holds out promises that can help us with our sorrow. One such promise is that death soon will be done away with forever (Revelation 21:4) and another promise is that “there is going to be a resurrection.” (Acts 24:15) I pray these promises from God, who cannot lie, (Titus 1:2) bring you comfort. For more
