Lila Blanche Seitz was the youngest of three children born to Grover and Ora Dell (Hendrix) Seitz on Nov. 18, 1936, in Vian. She went home to be with the Lord on Sept. 16, 2012, in Tahlequah.

Lila was an exceptional cook and worked at Greasy Elementary School, making delicious meals for many years. In her spare time, she could be found planning family dinners, taking care of her pets, or going to yard sales. She was also a very good writer and had many of her poems published. The time she spent with her husband, children, and grandchildren was very special to her.

Lila was of the Presbyterian faith. She will be greatly missed by all those who knew and loved her.
