Lee J. Foerster, age 65, went to meet his Maker and Savior unexpectedly on Tuesday, July 13, 2021 in Rochester, New York.

Lee was born on October 26, 1955 in West Bend, WI to Louis and Florence (Melius) Foerster.  Lee learned many skills while growing up on a dairy farm. He graduated from Waterloo High School in 1974.  In 1977 Lee began working at American Packaging in Columbus, WI as a utility worker and worked his way up to Senior Plant Engineer by 2006, the position he held at the time of his death.

Lee was known for his hard work ethic, his quietness, and his consideration for those around him.

Lee is survived by three brothers: Neil (Colleen) of Crownpoint, NM; Larry (Cheryl) of Stanley, WI and Tim (Melanie) of Story City, IA and three sisters: Janice Foerster, Sharon (Randy) Clayton, and Mary Foerster, all of Waterloo, WI, and numerous nieces, nephews, cousins and friends.

Lee is preceded in death by his parents.

Funeral Service will be held at 10:00 A.M., with visitation beginning at 9:00 A.M., Friday, July 23, 2021 at the church. A lunch reception will follow the service.
