Luree Ann McDonald, 88, of Oklahoma City, OK, passed Saturday March 21, 2015. Luree, daughter of Arnold and Georgia Fuhlrodt, was born near Fontanelle, NE, on May 1, 1926. Luree had been living in OKC with her husband of 71 years, George Leroy McDonald, both formerly from Blair, NE, when she suffered a stroke. She is survived by her husband, George, two daughters, Cheryl (Harvey) McIntosh of Swift Current, Saskatchewan, Canada, and Connie (Ken) Greeley of Tucson, Arizona, and one son, Gregg (Annette) McDonald of Oklahoma City, OK. Also surviving is her brother, Warren (Donna) Fuhlrodt of Blair, NE. Luree leaves behind five grandchildren and nine great-grandchildren. Luree worked as a realtor or secretary in many offices, in many states, throughout her career until her retirement when they moved to Oklahoma City in 1994. She was an accomplished pianist, a seamstress (a former 4H sewing champion), a long-time bridge player, and an exceptional game player, including Scrabble and daily crosswords.
Luree will be remembered for her beautiful smile, her ebullient laughter, and her kind, optimistic, caring and intelligent nature. It was so easy to love our mom. She had been a member of Putnam City Methodist Church for many years. The family wishes to thank Integris Hospice House for the empathetic care of our beloved mother. A later memorial will be held.
