Born on January 7, 1944, Lillie was a devoted mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, and friend. She is survived by her two daughters: Renay (Bruce) Petrick and Kimberly (John) Winn; her seven grandchildren; eight great-grandchildren; and many nieces and nephews—all of whom brought her immense joy and pride throughout her life.
She was preceded in death by her beloved husband, James Hady; her son, Victor Martensen; her parents, Bunnie and Ollie Brown; one sister; two brothers; and one grandchild.
Lillie had a deep love for nature and spent countless hours in her garden, especially tending to her cherished roses. Her favorite pastimes included gardening and spending quality time with her family—moments she held close to her heart.
