Ella-Mae Alma Lee Thiele, 90, was born on August 15, 1926, and went to our Lord on September 17, 2016. She was the loving wife of over 60 years to Belmont Rodney Thiele, and the mother of Roderick (Cindi), Ellette, Barrett (Sally) and Bryant. Ella-Mae had six grandchildren, Christopher (Shannon), Cara, Alison (Ryan), Sarah (Colin), Brett and Ben, as well as four great-grandchildren, Brayden, Colyn, Dylan and Ella-Mae. She was an aunt to John (Connie), Bob (Linda), and Terry, as well as a great-aunt, cousin and friend. Ella-Mae was preceded in death by her parents, John and Alma Lee; her husband, Belmont; her brother, Richard; and her nephew, Terry.

Ella-Mae's family was her passion in life. She acted as a nurturer, mediator, advisor and comforter. When time permitted, Ella-Mae displayed her artistic ability through crafts and painting. Ella-Mae will be greatly missed and always loved. In lieu of flowers, family requests donations be made to your local hospice. Memorial service to be announced at a later date.
