Lily Miller Obituary
Manti, Utah-Our beloved mother, grandmother, and sister, Lily Jane Miller died on December 6, 2020 at the age of 87. She passed peacefully of natural causes at her home in Manti surrounded by family.
She was born and raised in Ephraim, UT on May 31, 1933 to Nels Ira and Stella Lily Olsen. She married Rodney Clement Miller in the Manti Temple on May, 1952 who preceded her in death on March 10, 2010.
Lily Jane loved crafting in all its many forms. She was a skilled seamstress, quilter, cake decorator, and candy maker. She spent hours doing needle point of all kinds. She had a passion for genealogy and spent many years searching microfiche to find thousands of ancestors to do temple work for. Volunteering at the Manti Pageant was a cherished yearly tradition that she enjoyed participating in. Throughout her life, she faithfully served in many callings in the LDS church.
She is survived by her children: Norma (Don, deceased) Lingwall of Manti, Elaine Miller of South Jordan, David and Sherrie Kaye Miller of Vineyard, and Russell Miller of Manti; grandchildren: Shilo and Autrey Duke of Dallas, TX, Kristen and Danny Woodbury of Canton, GA, Meagan and Ken Smuin of Eagle Mountain, and Desiree' and Josh Gilman of Phoenix, AZ; plus 11 great-grandchildren; sister Evon Hansen of Spring City and sister-in-law Marilyn Miller of Manti. All of these she loved and touched deeply.
Her family would like to express their profound gratitude to her Gunnison Valley Hospice Care team for their kind and dedicated service.

I loved Lily Jane. She was always so welcoming when I went to her home, her daughter was my good friend and we spent alot of time playing together when we were younger. I have fond memories of Lily Jane being my 4-H leader and learning some of her wonderful recipes and instructions on cooking, plus the fun I had doing stitching or painting with Tri-chem. I think the most important thing was the fact that she was such a great friend to my own mother, and she would visit often when my own mother started getting sick. Lily Jane had the most beautiful voice!! She sang at my father's funeral and then again at my mother's funeral and both times brought chills and awe because it was so beautiful and filled with emotion. She brightened the room because she was always happy and joyful. She was always so excited to see me and my husband in her later life when we would drop by unannounced to say hello and loved to hear what was happening in our life. I will miss her long phone calls when she would call to check in on us. She will be missed, however, so happy for the sweet reunion with her loved ones in Heaven.
