Trevor Pratt Lee

January 29, 1996 – September 8, 2025

On September 8, 2025, our family lost our centerpiece, our brother, husband, father and son Trevor. Trevor was the most loving and compassionate husband to his best friend and adoring wife Kenzie. He was and always will be the most amazing and dedicated father to his 3 children Kinsley, Daniel and Jaxon. He is the best brother to Monet, Sirrinna, Alyssa, Lorissa and Kaleb. He was a dedicated, loyal and loving son to Lorie Burnham and Dumoan Lee who has since passed. His nieces and nephews adore him and will greatly miss the fun Uncle Trevor.

Trevor is the first son of Lorie and Dumoan. Dumoan was so excited to have a little boy. Trevor made his debut into this world on January 29, 1996, and he brought so much excitement to his family after 2 daughters. Trevor has always been a momma’s boy. When he was an infant, my mom would drop him off at grandma’s and he would cry and cry until he was picked up by her. He even had a hard time with my dad and Sirrinna but if he could see my mom, he would be totally fine. Trevor has always loved water and has been super tan his whole life. Trevor was fearless as a child and would often get himself in trouble because of it. He liked to follow dad and try to help him even if that meant going on the roof at 2 years old. Trevor never cared for housework, but he loved to be helpful. So, with some healthy persuasion and a little threatening he could be motivated to help. He was helpful to my mom with the transition to our new home and was accepting and loving of his new siblings and stepfather.

Trevor attended school at Noah Webster elementary until the 5th grade. He completed 6th grade at Barbra Bush elementary school and then completed 7th and 8th grade at Desert Ridge Junior High. He completed 9th through 11th at Desert Ridge High School and finished his senior year at Canyon Valley High School and Primavera Online High School. Trevor started working at Chick-fil-a while still in high school and there he met his best friend and wife Kenzie. He started working at the airport with his childhood friend Harrison and worked there for a few months before he injured himself repairing his camper. He was unable to return to work at the airport but was able to work for his father-in-law Jesse, and his HVAC business for the last 8 years.

Trevor is lucky to have found and married his best friend Kenzie and together they have their three beautiful children Kinsley, Daniel and Jaxon. As Trevor’s younger brother I had the opportunity to watch him fall in love with his other half. From the beginning it was obvious that Kenzie completed Trevor. There is nothing in this world that Trevor loved more than his family, and he strived to do everything for them. Trevor provided for his family by choice. He loved to be able to provide for his family no matter the circumstances. He worked long hours to keep up with the bills and if there wasn’t enough work, he was more than happy to find other ways to make money. He loved to take his family on trips to California and to the beach. He loved the ocean and by sharing that love with his children, they all do too. His greatest joy in life was to be able to make his children happy.

Trevor wasn’t always the first to express his emotions to his siblings, but he loved all of us very dearly and he found his own ways to show us all his love. His family was the most important thing in his life. He adored his wife and children and cherished every minute with them. He likes to keep himself busy. He could hardly sit idle for more than a few minutes, but he still always made time for his family, siblings and parents. Trevor has always been extremely curious. He enjoyed disassembling various electronics to learn how they work and to see how he might improve them. He liked to work on cars, quads and learn new things about them. He loved to learn and as a teenager his show of choice was often a documentary. Trevor was always the first to offer his help to anyone and everyone. He loved camping, fishing, off-roading and going to the dunes every year with his family. The outdoors has always been his home since he was young. He enjoyed playing outside when he was young with his friends or even by himself and had such an amazing imagination.

Trevor was always kind and caring but also quite mischievous. He loved to get into trouble and tended to injure himself. When Trevor was a year and a half his curiosity got the better of him and he ended up setting one of Sirrinna’s flip flops on fire in the toaster oven. Trevor managed to make it through life without breaking a bone (shockingly), but you can see how much he enjoyed life and how fearless he was if you ever looked at his arms and legs. All were covered in scars, each scar telling a story of either a dumb decision he made or a great time he had. One time he cut his hand open while working on his camper that he bought from Craigslist. He was so proud of that camper just because it was his, so he was putting a lot of time into it and in a lapse of judgment he decided to cut a 2 by 4 in half while still holding onto it. This meant that he ended up cutting his hand severely and had to drive himself to the hospital because no one else that was with him had their driver’s license.

Trevor had quite the need for speed. I can remember one night when Kenzie, Lorissa and I were with him in his little beat-up Audi that he was so proud of. We wanted to test how fast we could get it to go. That answer is 120mph. That need for speed got him in lots of trouble no matter how many times my mom told him to slow down. He was never a great listener, but I think the real wakeup call came when he got his license revoked after 7 traffic violations before the age of 18. He’s had a few tickets since getting his license back, but he has managed to keep his driver’s license.

Trevor liked to find his own path in life since he struggled with being told what to do and did not like being told no. He would get into trouble because he wanted to try to “fix” the E-350 diesel van, even after being told to stop making modifications to it. There were multiple fires that had to be put out on a vehicle that he was driving that he had worked on. He loved the rain and loved to splash in the puddles when he was young and he never outgrew that desire. One rainy night while he was driving home from a stake dance with 2 of our siblings and after specifically being told to avoid Elliot Road because it tended to flood, he decided to ignore the warning and took one of the family cars through one of the deep puddles causing the motor to hydro lock. Mom was so upset with him for not only ignoring her warnings but purposely going through the deepest puddle. In the end it became a good lesson for Trevor to learn that he might need to listen to others’ advice and a lesson to our parents that things are just things. Ultimately everyone got home safe that night.

Trevor struggled with school because he had too much energy for a classroom. Trevor enjoyed making those around him laugh so he was often labeled the class clown and troublemaker. He struggled with his vision and hearing and had to have multiple ear surgeries. Because of this he was often placed at the back of the class so he wouldn’t be a distraction to others. Ultimately this caused him to pay less attention in class because he could hardly hear the teacher or read the board. In one of those many surgeries, he had to get a full eardrum reconstruction surgery because he was too obstinate and prideful to go to the doctor until mom forced him to go to the appointment. They immediately scheduled him for surgery so they could save what was left of his ear drum. He was also diagnosed with a lazy eye and was partially blind in his right eye which meant he was required to wear glasses. But due to his own obstinance he refused to wear them.

Trevor loved to cook and was such a good cook. At any party we had he would volunteer to make the main entree for everyone, and it was always so good. He was incredibly critical of his own cooking so he always thought it could be better and all who ate his cooking just got lucky since the food got better. One consequence of this however, was that I would often get woken up at 4 AM because he had to go to work and someone had to watch the turkey so it didn’t burn or dry up, but I loved to do it. And as he got better and more confident in his cooking, he would try new things and experiment with new flavors and meats so we often would throw together gatherings just because wings were on sale and Trevor wanted to try something new with them.

Trevor has always been an example of perseverance to me as his brother. I’ve always looked up to Trevor since he was really the best brother. Trevor has not had an easy life. He struggled with school because of his hearing and vision, and he struggled with our father who wasn’t a constant and took advantage of Trevor’s kindness. However, though there were many other struggles in his childhood and young adult life he always stayed upbeat and positive through it all. No matter what life threw at him he was always a light in everybody’s life and especially mine. Anyone who ever met him would agree he just made life better.

To summarize a life that is impossible to summarize Trevor played hard but loved even harder. If you ever got the pleasure of meeting my brother, you would know that this is true. He has been my role model and taught me who I want to be in life. I’ve always been so proud to call him my brother. He was always willing to do whatever he needed to make his family happy. That could mean he was packing the whole trailer at 8pm on a Tuesday so that we could leave for the Sand Dunes early Wednesday morning. Or it could look like working hard to provide for his wife and kids. I remember when I worked with him, we would have some long days, but he still came home with a smile on his face even when that meant he had to pack up half his apartment after working till 9 pm and had to be back at work at 5am the next morning. He never complained, he just got it done. I love him and he truly will be an irreplaceable loss to anyone and everyone who knows him.
