Vonnie Lee Lambert, age 69, went to be with the Lord Sunday, November 11th at her home in Fairview, MT with her loving husband by her side.
Vonnie was born on January 25, 1950 in Helena, MT. She was one of six siblings but was the only one adopted by Roland and Martha Roberts. Vonnie had a void in her heart from being adopted and sought out to find her biological parents. A few years ago, Vonnie met her biological brother, Cole Roberts, and they would spend hours on the phone with each other.
She attended Culbertson High School where she had an abundance of joyful experiences as a cheerleader. Vonnie continued to cheer on her grandchildren at each sporting event and was their biggest cheerleader throughout their lives.
Vonnie married Ronnie Schuetze in 1968 and in this union, they had a loving daughter Melinda. She had twelve pregnancies before being blessed with a beautiful child. In 1975, Vonnie married the love of her life, Richard Lambert. On October 24th, 2019 Richard and Vonnie celebrated their 44th wedding anniversary. In this loving marriage, they raised Melinda.
Vonnie had a heartwarming mindset that made everyone feel safe. She could get anybody to share their life story with her. Vonnie was a people person who never found a reason to stop talking. More importantly, she was an excellent listener who cared about everything people had to say. Being a people person, no one was ever left a stranger after meeting her.
Cooking was one of Vonnie’s amazing qualities. She loved cooking for the children at the school and became known for her hug lines.
Vonnie loved the water. No matter where she was at if there was water, she was happy. She found Flathead Lake to be immensely joyous. Between traveling to Canada and having her grandchildren stay with her in Vida, Vonnie saw the best in each place she visited.
When she was not spending time with her grandchildren, Vonnie would watch her favorite television show, Gilmore Girls, and every holiday, the Hallmark channel would play continuously. Through it all, the most valuable thing to Vonnie was spending time with her husband, daughter, and grandchildren. Without a doubt, Vonnie had an abundance of friends that were so very dear to her heart.
Vonnie was preceded in death by her mother Mary Finnicum, her birth mother, and her father Ronald Roberts and her brothers Pat Roberts, and Roland Roberts.
