Amee L. Thiel

— Amee Lee Thiel, our beautiful daughter, passed away Sunday, August 29, 2010, at her home in Henderson from a fire.

Funeral Service will be held at 11 a.m. Saturday, September 4, 2010, at Hilltop United Methodist Church, Mankato. Visitation will be from 5-8 p.m. Friday at Mankato Mortuary and will continue one hour before service at church on Saturday. In lieu of flowers, memorials to the family are preferred.

Amee was born August 10, 1993, to Larry and Marie (Wanke) Thiel in Waconia, MN. She was currently a senior in High School. Amee was involved with the Tracy High School Choir, loved to model, and had a huge love for children and animals. Amee had a huge fascination with monkeys. She enjoyed life to the fullest and loved to be with her family and friends. She was especially excited when she got her license and her first car. Amee enjoyed laughing and had a smile that would light up the world! She was planning on being an OBGYN Nurse after high school. Even though Amee lived a short 17 years and 19 days, she has touched the lives of so many people with her loving spirit!
