Lee Schriever

With a heart filled with thankfulness for God's many blessings, Lee F. Schriever entered his heavenly home on July 22, 2022. Lee Francis Schriever was born to George F. and Pauline F. (Simmensen) Schriever on November 12, 1938, in Viborg, SD. He attended several rural schools in Turner County, including Withee Dist. #22. He graduated from Hurley High School with the class of 1956. On August 18, 1959, he married Darlene Bunger at Turner County First Presbyterian Church near Davis, SD. On March 1, 1960, they moved to a farm northeast of Hurley where they enjoyed farming together for 57 years and continued living on the farm for five more years. They were extremely proud of their four children - Sherri, Kristi, David, and Darin - who were willing workers and helped to make the farm a success. Lee joined Bethel Reformed Church of Davis in 1952 and went on to serve as deacon, elder, and treasurer. One of his favorite pastimes was collecting antique wrenches. He filled the walls and shelves of the basement and shop with wrenches - each one different. Lee is preceded in death by his daughter Sherri and son-in-law Bart Sherard; great granddaughter Louisa Schriever; parents George & Frances Schriever; and his wife's parents Henry T. & Martha Bunger. Grateful to have shared his life are his wife Darlene and his remaining children Kristi (Brad) Rops of Davis, David (Jennifer) Schriever of Philip, and Darin (Laurel) Schriever of Rock Rapids, IA; seventeen grandchildren Jessica (John) Pickett, Brent (Brooke) Sherard, Derek (Shelby) Sherard, Chelsea (Greg) Pullman, Gretchen (John) Kooyenga, Ethan Rops, Casey Schriever, Wyatt Schriever, Ashley Schriever, Caleb (Cathy) Schriever, Josh (Ellen) Schriever, Susanna Schriever, Luke Schriever, Daniel (Lexi) Schriever, Anna Schriever, Mary Schriever, and Joanna Schriever; eighteen great grandchildren Colin and Trinity Pickett; Kya, Kysen, Kinzi, and Korbin Sherard; Ada Sherard; Cydney and Callie Pullman; Boaz Kooyenga; Jaylin, Notice, Micah, Asa, Josiah, Zachariah, and Nehemiah Schriever; and Sybil Schriever; two brothers Gary (Patricia) Schriever and George Schriever, Jr.; four sisters Darlene (Don) Stewart, Pearl (Jerry) Kellen, Rose (Gordon) Gause, and Linda (Kim) Richman; in-laws Marlyn (Kathy) Bunger, Ellen (Ross) Errington, and Ron (Jacelon) Bunger; plus other relatives and friends.
