Willametta Penn Mills entered His presence Sept. 10, 1992, at Kalispell, Montana. She was born Sept. 25, 1900, near North English, Iowa, the middle child of eight. She was married Dec. 10, 1923, to Herbert Spencer Mills at Spencer, Iowa. Three daughters were born to the couple, the first dying at birth. The family travelled extensively following Dad's work. Mom always said Dad was anxious to see what was down the road and around the corner. After her husband's death in 1970, she remained in Waterloo, Iowa, near her youngest daughter, Leah. In 1979, she moved to Whitefish to live near her oldest daughter, Jean. In June of 1980 she became a resident of Immanuel Lutheran Home until her passing. She was preceded in death by six of her siblings; her infant daughter in 1926; and her husband in 1970. She is survived by her brother, Lorton Penn, and his wife, Frances, of Rogers, Ark.; her daughter, Jean Morris, and her husband Arthur of Whitefish; daughter Leah Steffen of Waterloo and Joe Steffen of Cedar Rapids, Iowa; grandsons, Larry Spencer Morris of Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, Michael Steffen and his wife, Carol, of Waterloo; granddaughter Pam Steffen Droste and her husband, Rich, of Waterloo; great-granddaughters, Shanna and Annette Morris and their mother, Barbara Morris, of Waretown, N. J.; and great-grand-daughters, Kodi and Kali Steffen of Waterloo. Willa's love and devotion to her family was excelled only by her love of the Lord and her abiding faith in Him. She lived it each day of her life and set a beautiful example for her family and friends. Services will be today at 2 p.m. at Austin Funeral Home in Whitefish. In lieu of flowers memorials may be sent to the Alzheimer's wing of Immanuel Lutheran Home in Kalispell or the Organ Fund of the Church of the Nazarene in Whitefish.
