Tiyger Lee, 63, of Burlington, Iowa, died Friday, April 17, 2026, surrounded by her family at her home in Burlington.
Born on July 28, 1962, in Camp Pendleton, California, she was the daughter of Malcom Baldwin and Glenda Sue Myers. On August 11, 2011, in Burlington, she married David Lee. He preceded her in death on March 14, 2026.
Tiyger loved making crafts and jewelry. She had a gift for creating gnomes and was very artistic with any form of art. Tiyger was known for her crafts at craft shows prior to getting sick. She had a big heart for her pets but her friends were like family and family was her first priority. Spending time with family especially her grandchildren brought her the most joy.
She is survived by her mother Glenda Sue Myers; four children: Tiffany (Eric) Wiles of Georgia, Kenneth Baldwin of Nebraska, Shay Waddle of Virginia and David Lee of Louisianna; nine grandchildren: Mackenzie (Mac) Ludwig, Kennedy Ludwig, Eric (Monk) Wiles, Rainer Smith, Briella Wiles, Orion, Brently, Graysen, and Hailey Waddle and brother Michael McDonald of Burlington.
She was preceded in death by her husband David, and adoptive father Malcom M. Baldwin.
Per her wishes cremation has been entrusted and accorded to the care of Lunning Chapel.
A special thank you from Tiyger and her children to her brother in-law Don “Ducky” McKune, who stepped in to help when both she and her late husband David became ill and guided them both through the toughest days they faced.
