May 5, 1927 — January 17, 2015
Our beloved mother, sister and grandmother, Lila Virginia Hansen Hunter, passed away on January 17, 2015.
Mom was born May 5, 1927 at home in Salt Lake City, Utah to Mahlin Sirus Hansen and Bertha Delilah Ohran. She was oldest of 5 children.
Virginia moved to Speedway, Indiana at age 3 and returned to Utah in 1942. She attended American Fork High School, LDS Business College and BYU. She married Dee R. Hunter. Virginia worked as an accountant with Dee in his CPA firm from 1950 until she retired in 1977. She loved to paint and play the piano and organ. She loved to garden and raise flowers. But most of all she loved taking care of her boys.
Mom and Dad were sealed in the Salt Lake Temple on November 4, 1984. Mom enjoyed her callings in the church. She wrote and directed many road shows and served in the Young Women's and as Relief Society organist. She and dad loved to travel in their motor home and were able to visit much of the United States and Western Canada.
Virginia is survived by 2 sons: Steven Dee (Connie) and Lynn Mahlin (Diane), 13 grandchildren, 38 great grandchildren and 3 great great grandchildren. She is also survived by her siblings: Paul (Mary) Hansen, Vernis Madsen, Melissa (Don) Peterson and Carl (Linda) Hansen
