Mary Lee Rosenberg was born in Birmingham, Alabama in 1931. After spending a year of her childhood in Bessemer, AL, the family moved to Chicago, IL and then Milwaukee, WI, where she graduated from Riverside High School in 1949. 

Mary has always been focused on her family. She loved spending time with her older brother, John. In 1952, she traveled alone aboard the Queen Mary to England to meet her soon to be sister-in-law, Gloria.

After returning from the trip overseas, she married Milwaukee neighborhood friend Daniel Lueck in 1953. They lived in a duplex in Milwaukee above the elder Rosenbergs on Hubbard Street. This is where they started a family, first with Steven and then Nancy. They then decided to move to the Northlawn Housing Project in Milwaukee for a few years before moving to Butler for a year. 

In 1961, they moved to the Town of Lisbon, residing at Windy Hill. There, they expanded the family with Tim, Carl, and Larry. It was at Windy Hill where the family also had many dogs and some chickens. The family attended St James Parish.

She worked at Addison Telephone Answering Service in Menomonee Falls, and then served as Treasurer for the Town of Lisbon for over 20 years. Also, she was a notary public.

Mary Lee enjoyed playing cards, bingo, participating in bowling leagues, being a member of the Lisbon Snow Knights snowmobile club, meeting family for dinner specials at Pepino’s, and attending any of her children and grandchildren’s events. She volunteered as school secretary and at the fundraising fish frys at her son’s church, was a swimming instructor at Menomonee Park, a Girl Scout leader, and a Cub Scout den mother. She was a good homemaker canning, baking and cooking delicious meals. As a family, everyone enjoyed camping throughout the state.

Later, Mary Lee was a member of the Red Hat Club.  For several years she could be seen on TV volunteering at the Channel 10 Great TV Auction.

She was an avid sports fan and especially loved the Milwaukee Brewers, supporting the team as a season seat holder since 1997. She also loved cheering on the Milwaukee Bucks and the Green Bay Packers.

Mary Lee could always be seen with a big smile on her face and truly loved being surrounded by her family.  She also created many lifelong friendships, including Jean Mills in Chicago, the Salzman family from Milwaukee, and the Enghofer family from Lannon.

She will be missed by all of her friends and family.
