Raymond Suey Yee
September 4, 1937 - September 13, 2024

Raymond Suey Yee, born in San Francisco, passed away peacefully at home in Stockton, California on September 13, 2024.

After graduating high school, Raymond proudly served his country in the Air Force for four years. Upon his return, he embarked on a diverse career path, initially working as an orthodontic technician for a decade. His entrepreneurial spirit led him to become a partner in a Chinese restaurant and an investor in various business ventures before transitioning to the hospitality industry as a bartender until his retirement.

A lifelong fan of the game, Raymond found joy and camaraderie on the golf course. He was a familiar member at Elkhorn Golf & Country Club and Stockton Golf & Country Club, where he could often be found enjoying rounds with cherished friends and family. But Raymond’s greatest joy was his enduring love story with his high school sweetheart, Mae. Their marriage spanned 68 remarkable years, a testament to their unwavering commitment and devotion.

Remembered for his warm hospitality and infectious sense of humor, Raymond had a unique gift for making everyone feel welcomed and appreciated. He leaves behind a legacy of laughter, kindness, and cherished memories.

Raymond is survived by his beloved wife, Mae; his son, Randall, and wife, Jayne, along with their children, Dillan, and Kendall; and his daughter, Liette, her husband Michael Castro, and children, Kahlia Kalua, and Harry Kalua III; and great-grandson, Harry Kalua IV.
