Mildred (Steffler) Lee was born November 8, 1921, in Nashua, the daughter of Cecil and Lena (Schmidt) Allison. She received her education in a rural country school near Republic and then attended the Nashua High School.

On March 11, 1944, in Salina, Kansas, she married Allen "Jiggs" Steffler, while he was serving in the U.S. Army. To this union two children were born. The couple made Cedar Street in Charles City their home. Mildred was a homemaker and a day-care provider. Her husband "Jiggs" died on June 14, 1982. She later married Floyd Lee on Feb. 6, 1993, in Charles City. He died on Jan. 10, 2004.

She enjoyed quilting, cooking, gardening and worrying about everyone she knew. She was loved by the children she cared for even though they all knew poor behavior would not be tolerated. Mildred lived in her Cedar Street home for nearly 60 years before residing in Cedar Vale Assisted living in Nashua, and eventually the Chautauqua Guest Home and more recently the Bartels Home. Mildred suffered with Parkinson's Disease for several years which greatly limited her mobility.

She is survived by two sons; Allen (Linda) Steffler of Mt. Home, Arkansas; Steven (Lang) Steffler of Anchorage, Alaska; a stepson, Floyd Gary Lee of Plainfield; a step-daughter, Barbara McAlees of Bradenton, Florida; five grandchildren; eight great-grandchildren and numerous step-grandchildren and step-great-grandchildren.
