LEE _ Florence (nee Gale) 1928 - 2006 Florence Audrey Lee passed away at the Salvation Army Agape Hospice on July 13, 2006 after a sudden illness at the age of 78 years. Florence was born on June 23, 1928 in Wetaskiwin, Alberta, where she grew up. In 1950 she entered the Lamont School of Nursing in Lamont, Alberta. After graduation she worked at various locations as a Registered Nurse. She was also a Flight Attendant for Trans Canada Airlines which later became Air Canada. During her time as a Flight Attendant she met the love of her life, Frederick Lee, whom she married in 1954. They moved to Fort Macleod, Alberta and started a family. In 1963 the family moved to Calgary, and then in 1975 she returned to work as a Registered Nurse at the family practice of Dr. G.B. Ogilvie where she worked until her illness prevented her from continuing. She was an R.N. for fifty-six years. She is survived by her son, Robert Lee and daughter, Nancy Fralick (Robert), one sister, Nancy Lou Jones (Gordon) of Bassano, Alberta, and one niece, Holly Sneesby (Chris). Florence was predeceased by her husband Frederick, by her father William James Gale and by her mother Nancy Janet Gale (Ervin). Florence's main motivation was her family, friends and all the people she had met along the way. She will be missed by all. "Do not stand at my grave and weep, I am not there, I do not sleep. I am a thousand winds that blow, I am the diamond glints on snow. I am the sunlight on ripened grain, I am the gentle autumn rain. When you awaken in the morning's hush, I am the swift uplifting rush Of quiet birds in circled flight. I am the soft star that shines at night. Do not stand at my grave and cry, I am not there, I did not die." At Florence's request there will be no Service held. Memorial donations may be made directly to Agape Hospice, 1302 - 8 Avenue N.W., Calgary, AB T2N 1B8 (Telephone 282-6588).
