WILTON, CT — Jane Cameron Lee, of Wilton, passed away Wednesday, Jan. 25, 2023.

Jane was born on May 28, 1961 in New York City, NY to Nancy and the late Gordon Cameron. Jane graduated high school from Laurel School in Shaker Heights, OH, where she made lifelong friends. She went on to receive a BBA from the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor. She married Nicholas Lee in 1989. They have lived in Wilton ever since, where they raised their family. She is survived by her husband Nick, their two beautiful children, Margaret Cameron Lee (Alex Flynn) of Brooklyn, NY, and Henry Hunter Lee (Kaleigh) of Boston, MA, and her loyal dog Teddy. Jane is also survived by her brother and sister-in-law (Christopher and Jolene Cameron), many loving nieces and nephews, cousins, and in-laws. She leaves behind a legacy of devoted friendships both near and far. Jane was predeceased by her adored father, Gordon Cameron, and her perfect dog, Matt.

At the University of Michigan, Jane was part of Delta Gamma Sorority and remained an avid Michigan Wolverines fan. She passed her Go Blue enthusiasm on to her children. Jane was a loving mother, wife, and an active dog mom. She loved the outdoors, had a wonderful sense of humor, an infectious laugh, and could light up a room just by walking in. She was a great cook, master griller and loved hosting dinner parties for friends. She was known for her "dinner party book:" documenting dates, menus, commentary about the party and food; and always about the guests and their preferences.

Jane was an active volunteer, serving on the boards of, among others, the Wilton Library, A Better Chance of Wilton and Camp Dudley (#21219). Her greatest joy was taking her beloved Matt in service to the Norwalk Hospital, as he would sit calmly with cancer patients and, more importantly, those in the mental health unit, where they were enthusiastically welcomed as the brightest light of the day.

In remembrance of Jane and in lieu of flowers, the family is requesting that donations be made in Jane’s name to either Guiding Eyes for the Blind or Laurel School.

A memorial ceremony will be held in the local area at a later date.
