Lilly Kathryn Furlong was born in Chester, Montana November 22nd, 1922. (Her daughter Aline once told me that she hated her middle name, and as an adult, had it legally removed.) She was the 6th of ten children, and the first daughter born to Ina Marie Keith and Edward R. Furlong. Lilly received her formal education in the Chester community, graduating from C.H.S. in 1941. She married Howard Worth Eveland on February 17th, 1942, in Helena. While Howard completed his military training, Lilly made her home in Chester and worked at the telephone office. In 1949 she began working at the Liberty County Library and also worked part-time at the Clerk & Recorder's Office. Lilly served as the Liberty County Librarian for 40 years, retiring in December of 1989. She suffered from Cancer these past few years which required numerous hospitalizations and treatments. Two weeks ago she went to California to be with her sister, Ina. While there, she entered the hospital at Whittier and died on the afternoon of Tuesday, February 5th. She was 68 years old...
(She was well known and well loved - there is quite a bit more about her, her activities and family. Too much to type.)
