It is with great sorrow we announce the death of Lily Stolson of Brooks, beloved wife of the late Gus Stolson, on Friday, September 4 ^th , 2020 at the age of 97 years. Mom was born Lily Krein on May 7 ^th , 1923, at home on the farm near Hallonquist, Saskatchewan. She married Gustave Albert Stolson on November 3 ^rd , 1942 near Neidpath, Saskatchewan. After their first baby was born in 1945 they moved to Tilley, where they resided until 1969, when they moved to Brooks. Lily had a great faith in God, was baptized, and attended the Evangelical Free Church, first in Tilley and then in Brooks.
