Obituary
Went to be with her heavenly father and her family.
Lila was born to John William Fann and Cora Viola Hill Fann at Sacred Heart Hospital in Spokane Wash. When she came home from the hospital there was a bad snow storm and she ended up riding in a covered sleigh pulled by a team of Percheron horses to her new home, where she met her brothers Ray and Virl.
If you ever met Lila she would tell you about working in the hay and driving Ray’s jeep. Lila was injured at birth and was never able to walk, so her dad made her a box and lined it good so she could be in the field with him or Ray. She always was in a wheel chair. She was really loved and was really special.
Lila was predeceased by her mother, father, brothers Darley Daniel, Virl William, and Lyle Leroy Fann.
She is survived by her brother Ray (Hallie), sister in law Delores Fann. Many nieces and nephews, Helen Rasmussin, Elvena Rickelts, Donnelly Rapin, Richard
Chris, Raymond, Weley (Paula) Kenneth (Terry) Fann.
Lila was a study volunteer and greeter at her church and she loved all the people there. We want to give a special thank you to her care givers. They were excellent and we appreciate everything they did for Lila. Any donations can be made to Hospice House, a wonderful place and helpful. Memorial services will be at Cornwall Church, June 2nd, 2016 at 1:00pm. Bring your comments.

Lila was one of my first friends when I arrived in Bellingham in 1990. Lila always seemed to make the best out of every situation. Now I
vision her with her dear friend John R, WALKING together hand in hand.
Sincere Sympathy to all who love and miss her. roz and Gary

My prayers go out to my Mother and Father for the loss of his Sister and her “Little Sister.” Aunt Lila was such a special person throughout our lives. I have many happy memories and see her smile when I think of her!
Sending my love to the family and wishing everyone to be happy for Aunt Lila’s return to her Mother, Father and Brothers in Heaven!
Love
Helen & Doug

The loss of a loved one can grieve the heart, therefore treasure the special times you did spend with your loved one. Draw strength from the love of family and friends and may God’s loving-kindness comfort you and help you through this difficult time of grief. My prayers are with you and your family. Psalms 119:50,76
