She worked for the LDS Church in the Genealogical Department for 30 years and was a valuable resource as a translator because of her fluency in several languages.

She served many people in different capacities throughout her life. She served during the World War II years making relief kits for the people of Europe. She served many years in the scouting program. She served as a translator and friend to those who needed her help. She set a good example to her family of faithfulness, hard work, self-reliance, perseverance, and determination throughout her life.
Lily actively served others in need until health no longer permitted. Then others served her, and we are very grateful to those of you who watched over and gave service to her. We will always remember her good example and her strength. She will be dearly missed by her friends and family.
