She was the seventh child of 13 children. Lilliemae married the love of her life John Calvin Pehrson on June 19, 1944 in Elko, Nev.

She served faithfully in all her auxiliary callings. Lilliemae worked 20 years for the Juab County Recorder’s Office and touched countless people through her service. Dementia and Alzheimer’s became Lilliemae’s friend the last six years of her life. She resided at Chancellor Gardens from September 2006 through October 2008 and Apple Village Assisted Living Facility in Layton from October 2008 until December 2012. She brought smiles, laughter and love to those who knew her. Lilliemae’s greatest love was her family. She is survived by her six children John C. Pehrson Jr. (Jan), Leslie C.
