He was born on January 6, 1958, in Fort Worth, Texas to Lee Arthur Pilot and Susie Sneed Pilot. Lee’s journey began where he was raised in Fort Worth, and he graduated from O.D.

His sense of humor brightened the lives of those around him, and his kindness and caring nature touched many hearts. Lee was an avid Mavericks fan and Dallas Cowboys fan. He took immense pride in supporting his teams and would not rest until the game was over.
