So Ja Lee Obituary

With profound sadness, we say goodbye to So Ja Lee of Chicago, Illinois, whose vibrant spirit touched the lives of many. So Ja left this world on July 5, 2025 at the age of 81, leaving a void in the lives of so many people. You can send your sympathy in the guestbook provided and share it with the family. You may also light a candle in honor of So Ja Lee or send a beautiful flower arrangement to the funeral service.

As So Ja departs from this earthly realm, her essence lingers — a whisper on the wind, a ripple on the water — a testament to the enduring power of love to transcend the boundaries of life and death. Though So Ja may no longer walk beside us, her spirit lives on in the memories and the legacy So Ja leaves behind.

She was loved and cherished by many people including: her husband Kil Sam Lee; and her children, Issac (Mirhee), David (Aimee), Chang (Hannah) and Mieoak (Joseph).
