Lily Erna Tresch was born Sept. 30, 1923 in Imperial County, California, to Johann Albin Tresch and Serafina Louise Von Moos Tresch.  She left this world on Jan. 25, 2017. 

She was preceded in death by her husband, Vince; son, Vince Jr.; son-in-law Ron Hoover; and sister, Louise Tresch Hawk.  Lily is survived by son Bob Freemantle (Nancy), daughters Mary Brownell (Mike), Bonnie Taylor (Bill) and Chris Hoover.  She leaves 14 grandchildren, 25 great-grandchildren and 7 great-great grandchildren. 

The family would like to express their gratitude to Frye’s Care Home who cared for Lily for 13 years.   

Interment will be in the Spring in her beloved Applegate Valley.

In her honor we cleaned house, used a gallon of Clorox, hung laundry out in an orderly manner, and stopped at a yard sale.
