Christine Lee of Jamison, Pennsylvania, passed away on Sunday, May 10, 2026, in Raleigh, North Carolina. She was 56.
She was born on June 19, 1969, in Pittsburgh, the daughter of John and Antigoni Kefalogiannis. Christine’s life took her from Pittsburgh to Cleveland, Naperville, Illinois, and eventually Bucks County. In each place, she made a home, formed friendships, and stayed close to the people she loved.
Christine earned her bachelor’s degree from the University of Pittsburgh and later received a Master of Business Administration from Cleveland State University. She built a career with Kellogg Company and Johnson & Johnson, bringing steadiness and care to her work and to the relationships she built along the way.
She was married to John Lee for 24 years. Together they raised their children, John and Alexa. Christine was deeply involved in their lives, present in the daily work of being a mother, and proud of them.
Family remained close around her. She shared a close bond with her sister, Francesca Vrettos, and stayed connected to her extended family across the years. Those who knew Christine saw her as thoughtful and strong, someone who showed her care through attention, loyalty, and the way she stood by the people she loved.
She enjoyed traveling, walking, reading, spending time with family and friends, and being at the beach. She was also a member of St. Luke Greek Orthodox Church in Broomall, Pennsylvania.
Christine is survived by her husband, John Lee; her children, John Lee and Alexa Lee; her sister, Francesca Vrettos; her brother-in-law, George Vrettos; her nephews, John and Christopher Vrettos; her aunt, Villy Grillou; her mother-in-law, Marilyn Lee; and her extended family, including Mike and Roxanne Lee, Tom and Angie Lee, Margaret and Kevin Berry, Jeanne and James Pearcy, several nieces and nephews, and many dear friends.
