Lila Lou Guazzini

February 18, 1930 - March 18, 2025

On March 18, 2025, Lila Lou Guazzini took the outreached hand of God and stepped over into a new life. There had to be a crowd waiting for her as she was a very special lady.

Lila was born February 18, 1930, in Fallon to Ernest and Lillian Baumann. She was the eldest of three children. If you know Lila, there is not enough paper to write her obituary. She was a strong, hardworking wife, mother, grandmother and great grandmother, and not to leave out many friends.

She was the epitome of a farm wife, up early, cooking, feeding cattle, milking cows, and gardening. She was a multi-tasker, she could be cooking breakfast (yes, she did COOK breakfast) preparing for what she would have for lunch, all while answering phone calls or write a receipt for a bull buyer and she might have to make a new pot of coffee or bottle feed a baby goat, in the middle of it all.

Lila, was a devoted Christian woman, never missing a Sunday at church. She taught Sunday School to the children before the church service where she would lead the music selections. Sunday dinner was cooking at home, ready for the family when she returned home.

Preceded in death by her parents, sister and brother-in- law, Remo and May Laca; mother and father-in-law Marie and Louis Guazzini; son and daughter-in-law Sam and DaNielle Guazzini; Grandson in law Brandon Kempf and brother Ernest Bud Baumann; husband of 69 years,
Louie Guazzini.

Lila is survived by her daughters and sons-in-law, Morena and Gary Heser; Virginia and Jeff Knight; son and daughter-in-law Ted and Loretta Guazzini; grandchildren; Randalyn Kempf; Brandon (Elissa) Heser; Brian (Jeanette) Knight; Angela (Ward) Viera; Samantha (Chris) Scholer; Sam (Jeri) Guazzini; Mark Sallee; Heather and Mariela Holdridge-Fernandez; Michelle Jeppsen and Dan Jeppsen; numerous great and great great grandchildren; nieces and nephews.

The family would like to thank the caregivers at The Homestead for all the love you showed
to our mother during her stay with you.

There will be a potluck dinner to follow services at the Wolf Center.

The family wishes donations would be made in Lila’s memory to The Country Church PO Box 413 Fallon, NV 89407.

A service to Celebrate Lila’s Life will be held on Friday, March 28, 2025, 11:00 am at Smith Family Funeral Home. Arrangements are under the direction of the Smith Family Funeral Home 505 Rio Vista Drive Fallon, NV 89406.
