Lyla Gintz Obituary
GINTZ, Lyla Kay
On December 19, 2009, God blessed us with our beautiful baby girl, Lyla Kay Gintz. She was our dream come true. Only 14 short months later, on March 14, 2011, she went home to be with Jesus and is now sitting on his lap wrapped in his loving arms. From the moment she was born she was an absolute joy to all who were around her. She blessed us with her sweet personality and contagious smile. She loved to play with her dollies, read books, dance to music, and tag along with her big brother. Landon loved his little sissy and did everything with her. He was very protective of her and always made her laugh. Everyone who knew Lyla knew she loved to eat! She was smart, a little tease and quite the spit-fire! She was Mommy's little cuddle bug and Daddy's little princess. Lyla is survived by her mom and dad, Jason and Mandy Gintz (Cheney), one brother Landon, Grandparents Bob and Sue Beck (Post Falls) and Doug and Candy Gintz (Spokane), Great-Grandparents Bill and Lib Bailey (Spokane), Joan Gintz (Spokane) and Margaret Forbes (McCabe, MT) and numerous aunts, uncles, and cousins. A funeral to celebrate her precious life will be held Saturday March 19, 2011 at 10:00 am at Northview Bible Church (13521 N. Mill Rd.). In lieu of flowers, contributions may be made to the charity of your choice.
