Lee was born in Weymouth to the late Lenny and Esther Field. He graduated from Hull High School and Westfield State College after serving in the U.S. Army and as a member of the 1058th Transportation Co in Hingham.  

Lee spent many years in insurance and sales prior to his retirement. He loved his role as a coach and as a friend to so many. His greatest joy was being a proud father and loving husband. He will be remembered for his quick wit and kind heart.
