Lillian and Ernest spent time as missionaries in Puerto Rico and in the U.S. and 26 and a half years in rescue mission work with 20 years of them in the Altoona Rescue Mission, in Altoona, Pa.

Interment will be at Carson Valley Cemetery. In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to the Altoona Bible Church in her memory. One of Lillian's favorite passages from God's word was "If we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also that sleep in Jesus will God bring with him, for the Lord himself shall descend from Heaven with a shout, with the voice of the arch angel, and with the trump of God and the dead in Christ shall rise first, then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and so shall we ever be with the Lord." I Thessalonians 4: 14-17
