Maendy Lynne Lee-Gady's Obituary
Mrs. Maendy Lynne Lee-Gady, age 35, passed away in Ann Arbor, MI on Saturday, March 19, 2011 after a very brief illness. She was a piece of heaven on earth and faced her illness with courage and grace – never complaining to the doctors or nurses who cared for her. Although Maendy was taken so quickly, she will never be forgotten. Her memory will live in the hearts of her beloved family and friends and those who had the privilege to have her in their life. Maendy was born in Muskegon on July 17, 1975 to William and Kim (Strawn) Lee, Jr. She earned her associate of nursing and also worked as a waitress for Bear Lake Tavern, Hackley at the Lakes and most recently, Alleyways. On September 27, 2008, she married Michael P. Gady in Muskegon. Maendy loved being with children – especially the time she spent with her nieces and nephews. Maendy’s family would like to extend deep gratitude to the doctors and nurses at Blodgett Hospital in Grand Rapids - especially Dr. Andrew Welch and his nurse, Pam.
