Vicki Sue Lee, age 71, passed away peacefully on Sunday, March 16, 2025, at her home in Sioux Falls, SD, surrounded by her family. She was born on July 26, 1953, to Roy and Georgann (Harrison) Wheeler in Moberly, MO.

Visitation will be held on Monday, March 24, 2025, from 5:00 PM to 7:00 PM at the Sioux Falls Church of Christ. The funeral service will take place on Tuesday, March 25, 2025, at 10:00 AM, also at the Sioux Falls Church of Christ. The interment will be at Fairlawn Cemetery in Aurora, SD.

She graduated from Brookings High School in the class of 1972, where she met the love of her life, Paul Lee. They were married on February 18, 1972, at the Church of Christ in Brookings, SD. After high school, she pursued a career as a baker before transitioning to managing and then running her own dry-cleaning business in Sioux Falls, SD. Vicki and Paul were blessed with three daughters: Joy, Jessica, and Ann. Recently, they celebrated 53 years of marriage, living a life inseparable from each other. Tragically, they passed away just three days apart.

She was passionate about the Lincoln Marching Band, the Kansas City Royals, and the Chiefs. In her free time, she loved to crochet, garden, and shop. She cherished every moment spent with her children and grandchildren as "Nana," attending their sporting, band, and choir events and rarely missing a game unless necessary. Her grandchildren were her priority, to the point of going right from getting discharged from the hospital to catching her granddaughter's performance at the Festival of Bands in 2024 with the Lincoln Marching Band.

Grateful to have shared her life are her daughters, Joy (Richard) Neal, Jessica Pfau, and Ann (Terry) McPhink; father, Roy Wheeler Jr.; siblings, Elizabeth "Libby" Grindeland and Gary Wheeler; and grandchildren, Jacob (Hanna) Neal, Elizabeth Lee, Abigail McPhink, Tessa McPhink, and Samuel Shaw.

She was preceded in death by her mother, Georgann; husband, Paul Lee; and son, David Paul Lee.
