She was born in South Korea, on March 28th 1958. Lee, as all her customers called her, was one of the best chef in the world. With her husband Norm Houle they opened café-I-Free on Cedar Street in 1999, then café Korea in 2001. She was a pioneer and opened the first restaurant North of Toronto to introduce Korean, Japanese, Thai, Vietnamese, Indonesian, Indian, and even bubble tea to Sudbury. She will be greatly missed. She is survived by her husband Norm Houle, daughters Jieun Chung, Eun Young Chung and her fiancé Dennis Park, son Norm Houle Jr. and wife Une Kyoung and granddaughter Breanna from Niagara and Barrie, son Rory Houle and partner Nicolle from Bracebridge, brother Chan Woo Lee, wife Hye Kyung Park and niece Chae Hyun Lee from Seoul, Korea. She was the daughter of Chong-Min Lee and Soo Young Kim and another brother Jin-Woo Lee, all predeceased. She will sadly be missed by all.
