Lee Anne McKinney, 80, of Palmer, Texas went home to be with the Lord on Sunday, July 23, 2023 at Baylor Medical Center of Waxahachie after a period of declining health.
Lee Anne was born August 10, 1942 to the late Cecil and Thelma Ridenour in Shelby, Ohio. She graduated from Shelby High School in 1960, and worked at AMF for several years. She then moved to Lodi, OH where she raised her daughters. Lee Anne worked for Permold Corp. in Medina, retiring in 2004, moving to Palmer, Texas in 2005.
She was an avid bowler for many years, and enjoyed reading and her crossword puzzles. The joy that her grand and great-grandchildren gave her was like no other. She loved spending quality time with the family on the weekends. Lee Anne always made time to sit and talk sports, especially those Ohio State Buckeye's. She was an ardent supporter of her grandchildren's endeavors, attending as many of their activities as she was able to.
