Lily Blauer Heninger, 100, passed away Sept. 20, 2003, in Logan. She was born Dec. 15, 1902, in Lund, Idaho, the daughter of Rosetta Gerber and Christian Fredric Blauer. She had a love of learning, and after graduating from Albion Normal School she attended Brigham Young College in Logan. She taught school in Idaho for several years, and gave the gift of the love of learning to many children.

She was married to Preston A. Heninger on Nov. 11, 1931, in the Logan LDS Temple. Together they raised three sons and one daughter. He died Aug. 2, 1981.

Lily was active in the LDS church all her life. She served as Relief Society President of the Logan 13th Ward, and held many teaching positions. She was very interested in genealogy and could recite names, dates, and information about the family without consulting the many records she kept.

She was known for her beautiful smile and for the love she had for everyone around her. She loved making people happy. She was a loving and devoted mother, grandmother, sister, aunt, and neighbor.

A 100th birthday celebration was held in her honor in December of 2002. She was thrilled with the outpouring of love that was shown to her on that occasion by her many friends, neighbors, and relatives.

She is survived by three sons: Sheldon (Lynette) Heninger of Logan; Clayne (Irene) of Albuquerque, N.M.; and Lynn (Colleen) Heninger of Vienna, VA. A daughter, Janeene (Clair) Jones, of Logan passed away on June 2, 2001. She is also survived by 20 grandchildren, 41 great-grandchildren (with 1 on the way), and one great-great-grandchild.

Her granddaughter Andrea has lived with her for the past few years, making it possible for her to stay in her own home until a month before her death.

Funeral Services will be held on Friday, September 26th, at 12:00 noon at Allen-Hall Mortuary, 34 East Center Street, Logan. Family and friends may call from 10:30 to 11:45 a.m. prior to the services.

Her family would like to thank the staff of Rocky Mountain Hospice and the Logan Nursing and Rehabilitation Center for the tender and loving care they gave her in her final days.
