Thelma Irene Kish Obituary - Visitation & Funeral Information

Thelma Irene Kish passed away on July 18, 2019 at the age of 86. Beloved wife of Lawrence. Dear Mother of Jan (Frank) Knoll, Larry (Muffy) Kish, Gene (Kathy) Kish and Al (Shannon) Kish. Loving G-Ma to Brian (Jen) Knoll, Jason (Beth) Knoll, Derek Kish, Ryan Kish (Jill Rinke), Danny Kish and Alex Kish. Sweetest GG to Aiden Knoll, Camden Knoll, Peighton Knoll, Addisyn Knoll, Carsten Knoll, Gracelynn Knoll and Christian Knoll. Thelma met the love of her life on a baseball field, and still talked about that all the time. They were married on the Bride and Groom show on television on November 3, 1952. The show was based in New York and Thelma’s Uncle Jesse was the officiant. They celebrated their 66 th Anniversary on November 3, 2018. Thelma and Larry raised a wonderful family and enjoyed many years of friendship with their hand-ball friends. When the G kids began to arrive, Thelma and Larry were front and center, being the greatest fans at sporting events, school events, recitals and graduations. They’ve always made sure they were very present in all their lives and their pride was over the top! When the Great Grands started arriving, GG and GG were just as much about being at their sporting events, dance recitals and never missed a moment of their accomplishments. Thelma was brilliant at Jeopardy, her sharpness of mind and ability to remember dates, names, and facts, made her a wickedly good potential contestant. A lot of this was also due to the fact she loved to do the crossword puzzle – IN INK, no less! This has also rubbed off on more than a few G-Kids. Her smile, her kindness and her LOVE for all will be forever missed, but she will never stop watching over everyone. Heaven has just received a wonderful Angel. Visitation will be from 1-8 p.m. at Wasik Funeral Home, on Wednesday July 24, 2019 at 49150 Schoenherr Rd, Shelby Township. A Celebration of Life Service will be at 7:30 p.m. Please share a memory by signing her online guestbook.
