Donell Wesley Lee

February 8, 1961 – December 10, 2025

Donell Wesley Lee was born in Little Rock to Levian Lee and Bernice Wesley. He passed away on December 10, 2025, in Russellville.

Donell was preceded in death by his loving parents.

He spent his early years in Little Rock and later made his home in Dover and Russellville. Donell was truly one of a kind—a real character with a big personality and a big heart. He loved the Lord, cherished his friends, and took great pride in his personal style. Donell was passionate about looking his best, always making sure every outfit matched perfectly from head to toe.

He enjoyed a good meal, playing basketball, watching Perry Mason and the Chicago Bulls, and never turned down a good mid-day nap or a mid-day snack. Donell had a keen eye for detail and preferred to do things in his own time and in his own way. He also had a deep love for animals and was happiest when caring for the neighborhood cat or spending time with a friendly dog.

Left to cherish his memory are his Lee family in Little Rock and his Grace House family in Russellville.

A memorial service will be held at 10:00A.M., Thursday, December 18, 2025 at Cornwell Funeral Chapel in Dardanelle.
