Lila Fenske, 102

Lila G. (Pajari) Larsen Fenske, age 102, fell asleep in death peacefully at her home in Polson on Jan. 6, 2024. Lila was born Aug. 16, 1921, in Becker County, Minn., to John and Alina Pajari. She was the sixth of 11 children.

On Oct. 12, 1940, Lila married Jack Larsen. They had five children, Dwight (Ruth), Gerald, Arlan (Sharon), Brenda (Rod) Learn, and Yvonne (Phil) Volk.

She had 21 grandchildren, 39 great-grandchildren and 21 great- great grandchildren. She is survived by all and her 96-year-old brother, Bill Pajari.

In 1994 Jack passed away and in 1997 she married Bill Fenske; he preceded her in death.

Lila will be greatly missed. She was quite the lady. She loved baking, gardening, sewing and picking huckleberries. Her main joy was serving Jehovah God and sharing her hope of a future earthly paradise.
