Obituary of Lillie Ilene Miser

Lillie Ilene Miser, 80, of Blountville, TN. Went home to be with her Lord and Savior on Sunday, January 2, 2022. Lillie was born in Church Hill, TN to the late Lawrence and Stella Fillers Douglas.  

Lillie was a kind and loving woman with an infectious laugh that filled any room. She was a prayer warrior and was often the first person that anyone who knew her called when they needed prayer. She was noted as a “spitfire” redhead who was full of energy. She was a fighter and had overcome so many obstacles in her 80 years. Lillie loved playing piano, flowers, working in her garden, and she especially loved singing with her girls.  

Lillie was a member of Living by Faith in Blountville. She loved reading her Bible and immersing herself in God’s word.  

In addition to her parents Lillie was preceded in passing by her infant sister, Barbara Ann Douglas and her special great-grandson, Jaxx Linton.
