Hyang Zelichowski Obituary
ZELICHOWSKI, HYANG
Hyang (Lee) Zelichowski, 72, of Fulton, MI passed away on Friday, August 1, 2014. She was born in Chorwon Korea, on February 14, 1942, to Seung Mo Lee (Father) and Ok Choon Chang (Mother). She married Donald Zelichowski on May 24, 1962. Lee was beloved by everyone that she came into contact with. Her selfless and giving attitude was infectious and appreciated by all who dealt with her. From being the ultimate team mom to being the "go to" person at her place of employment, Lee always brought a positive aura. Lee enjoyed gardening, canning, watching sports and most of all, enjoying time spent with her family. Lee also earned her United States citizenship through the naturalization process in 1968. She was extremely proud of this accomplishment. Lee is survived by her husband, Donald Zelichowski, Sr.; and two sons, Walter P (Kathy) Zelichowski, of Hudsonville, MI; Donald J (Molly) Zelichowski, of Battle Creek, MI. She is also survived by four grandchildren, Brandon Zelichowski; Eric Zelichowski; Tyler Zelichowski; Kristen Zelichowski. A service to celebrate Lee's life will be held at Faith Bible Church, 15350 East Y Avenue, Fulton, MI at 11 AM on Friday, August 8, 2014. There will be a luncheon after the service. In lieu of flowers, it was Lee's wish that any memorial contributions go to St. Jude's Children's Research Hospital (1-800-873-6983). The family would also like to include Wings Home (Hospice) in Allegan, MI. St. Jude's accepts donations by mail at P.O. Box 1000, Department 142, Memphis, TN 38148-0142. Wings Home also accepts donations by mail at Wings Home, c/o Wings of Hope Hospice, 530 Linn Street, Allegan, MI 49010. Arrangements by the Baxter Funeral & Cremation Service.
