Stan Lee’s wife, Joan Lee, passed away at 95 years old in Los Angeles on Thursday. They were married 69 years. She died from complications from her stroke earlier in the week.
Joan Lee was a former British Hat Model. Stan Lee met Joan when he was suppose to take her friend on a date. They had two children, J.C. (Joan) and Jan but Jan died three days after her birth.
Joan was the love of Stan’s life. She helped inspire him and help him through the dark times of comics. Without Joan’s encouragement and support, Stan would have left comics before he created any of his Marvel characters like the Fantastic Four, Spider-Man, or the Avengers.
Rest In Peace Joan Lee. Thank you for all you did.
