Lee Etta Marceline (Brown) Witt, 88, El Dorado Springs, died July 5, 2016. Lee Etta was born on June 4, 1928, at Pleasantview, MO.
Lee Etta has served the Lord faithfully since her youth. She was a homemaker who often worked beside her husband, Lester, in construction projects. She often volunteered for church, Bible school and mission related projects. Thus, she along with Lester traveled to several mission fields.
