My husband had an address change, he’s no longer at the old, his new address is Heaven’s Gate where streets are made of gold. No more waiting for the mailman to bring mail up to his door. He has become a messenger to those who went before. My husband no longer feels the pain, no doctors now to see, for at his new address, his body is set free. Those shaking hands, those eyes so dim are things that now are past, for his new address, his health will always last. His clothing there is different too, a robe so clean and white, and address with an open door, where no one fears the night. So even though he left us, should we be distressed? He really didn’t die, you see, he simply changed his address.

Survivors include his wife of 54 years, Nancy, and four sons, Lance (Ruth) Albert, of Shawano, Kevin (Carla) Albert, of Marion, Kyle (Joanie) Albert, of Marion, and Chad Albert, of Appleton.

James Leo Lieg, of Muskegon, Michigan, passed away on Dec. 2, 2014. He was 70 years old. James was born on April 28, 1944 to Leo and Betty Lieg in Shawano. He served his country in the U.S. Army during Vietnam. He also worked at the University of Texas Medical Branch on Galveston Island as a nuclear medicine tech for almost 30 years. He enjoyed tennis, billiards and riding his motorcycle; however, his friends and family were always kept close to his heart with constant communication throughout the years. His great knowledge and sense of humor were always with him and will be missed by all.

Jim is survived by his two children, Nancy Lieg and Loretta Parker; six grandchildren; and his former wife, Cathy Lieg.

Services for Jim will be held at a later date.
