Mary Lee Obituary

Mary Angela Lee

Mary Angela Lee, 61, of North Baltimore, passed away Friday, Feb. 9, 2024, at her residence.

She was born Dec. 12, 1962, to Merle and Donna (Fruth) Lee. Mary was a proud 1981 graduate of Van Buren High School.

Mary was a creative soul who was always finding inspiration for new projects. She loved animals of all shapes and sizes except snakes. Her favorite candy was Reese's Cups and her love of coffee was as strong as she could brew it. She had a green thumb to rival even the best botanist, often "rescuing" discount plants and reviving them to their former glory.

Mary worked as a Surgical Technologist for many years. Following that, she worked at Whirlpool Corporation.

Mary's memory lives on in her daughters, Merissa Swain and Lydia Swain; grandsons, Gavin Meade and Oliver Meade; mother, Donna Lee; siblings, Cheryl Lee, Caryl Lee, and Gary (Anne) Lee; nieces and nephews; the best close circle of friends; and her beloved pets.

She was preceded in death by her father, Merle Lee.

Visitation for all who wish to celebrate Mary's life will be 5 p.m. Thursday, Feb. 15, 2024, until the time of her celebration of life service at 6 p.m. at Kirkpatrick-Behnke Funeral Home, 500 Lima Avenue, Findlay. Pastor Steve Ramsey will officiate.

Instead of flowers, the family asks that any donations be made to Wood County Humane Society, 801 Van Camp Rd., Bowling Green, Ohio, 43402, in honor of Mary.

Online condolences may be shared with the family via www.kirkpatrickbehnke.com.
