Obituary of Thelma Lorraine Lee
Lee, Thelma (Peggy)
Passed away into the presence of our Lord on Tuesday, May 16, 2017, at age 85, from age related illness. Loving wife of Guy Lee for 65 years. Blessed with four children, Rick (Brenda), Randy (Brenda), Ron, and Rhonda Lee Wilken, also ten grandchildren and 16 great-grandchildren. Predeceased by her parents, Howard and Julia Wittich and her dear brother John. Thelma and Guy had a depot at their home in Stirton; tons of boxes and bags of clothing, plus school and hospital supplies were collected, sorted and packed. Trailer loads were then delivered to Canadian Food for Children in Kitchener and from there trucked to headquarters in Toronto. Bags of quilts and knitted articles were also collected and sent to Tikinagan at Sioux Lookout. So many wonderful volunteers helped with the mission work. The need was so great and they were so thankful. Since moving to Elmira ten years ago, Thelma continued her mission work by crocheting over 2,000 pneumonia vests for children in orphanages, schools and hospitals. Up until present day, Thelma and Guy have also helped to fundraise for a community in Haiti. In keeping with Thelma's wishes, there will be no visitation. A private family interment will be held in West Montrose Cemetery. As expressions of sympathy, donations may be made to the KW Humane Society through the Dreisinger Funeral Home, Elmira. Thank you.
God has her in His keeping;
we have her in our hearts.
