I met Oma through Sandra Black. Oma was a good person. Outgoing and easy to talk to. I visited her at her hone in Daisetta. Always friendly. The welcome mat out.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to all the family and friends. She meant a lot to our family and was always very close, especially to our mother. They frequently visited her and enjoyed all their visits. I can still recall her wonderful chicken and dumplings. I don’t recall tasting a better one since hers. Prayers to you all.
I had the honor of knowing Oma from Liberty Healthcare Center. She was just one of those souls who I lived from the 1st day I started working there. I loved when you’d walk by and say hello and she would say “well come here and let me see you”.. she was the highlight of my shift and I will truly miss her so very much. I got to be around her the night before she passed. I’m honored I got to say goodbye and love on her one last time. All my heart to the family & friends who loved Oma. RIP sweet lady.
The family are in our thoughts and prayers. Oma Lee was such a sweet person. I have alot of great memories of when Maw Maw and Paw Paw would come visit..priceless. May you be surrounded now by Peace and Comfort during this time.
