Chester "Chet" Lee

Chet Lee, of Viroqua, died after living a full life of 94 years on Sunday, May 7, 2023. He was proud of his family. His family looked to him for love and encouragement. He was a helper to many and served our community in a variety of ways. Chet’s favorite place was “the farm.” Chet and his wife Bea worked hard to make the farm a place for family, fun, and food. He enjoyed mushroom hunting, chopping wood, growing giant sunflowers, and MOWING! It was a place for Chet and Bea to take the grandchildren to ice skate, play in the creek, explore, and enjoy picnics.

Chet is survived by his twin brother, Charles (Ruth); his children, Vicki (Scott) Springman, Patti (Rick) Fatura, and Kris (Darrell) Larson; his grandchildren, LeeAnn (Tim) Marien, Ryan (Nathalie) Larson, Anne (Jay) Schreier, Abby Springman, Jacob (Lacey) Fatura, and Laura Springman; his great-grandchildren, Cullen, Lucy, Cale Schreier and Leo Marien; and sister-in-law, Marcia Lee.

Chet was preceded in death by his parents; his wife, Bea; and his brothers, Stanley (Sarah “Sally”), and Arnie.

His family is incredibly thankful to Creamery Creek and Norseland Nursing Home for the great care he received. His dry sense of humor and kindness will be deeply missed.
