Steve Lee, vice president for business affairs and chief financial officer at the University of Mobile (UMobile) who oversaw the Christian school’s recent $7 million campus renovation, died March 17 following an extended illness.
Lee had served in the administrative roles at UMobile since 1995 and was a Certified Public Accountant.
“Steve lived a life of purpose, making a difference,” UMobile President Mark Foley said. “Steve’s conservative fiscal management enabled us to undertake a $7 million campus enhancement project and he led the department charged with making it happen.”
A member of Dauphin Way Baptist Church, Mobile, Lee was recently awarded the Meritorious Service Award by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges (SACSCOC) in recognition of Lee’s “untiring service on 19 committee visits and as a member of the accreditation process project and the finance subcommittee,” according to SACSCOC President Belle S. Wheelan.
Lee is survived by his wife, Rhonda, and two children.
