Lola Butterfield Llewelyn

Lola was born June 7, 1941, to George Jefferson and Edna Marie Butterfield. She died Sunday, October 6, 2024, to incidents of age and Dementia related complications. We are happy that she is back together with our dad, her mother, and our sister who she dearly missed.

Lola married her sweetheart, Dick, on January 23, 1962, and together had four children, Tracie, Boyd, Kim, and Cory. Her family was her life and raising her children was a major accomplishment. She loved being a grandmother and never missed a birthday or holiday. Our mother endured many hardships in her life including crippling Polio and later in life Dementia. She never let her disabilities get in the way of enjoying life. She did many things that doctors and others said she could never do. She was the strongest person we have ever known. We are happy that she is no longer saddled with a body that simply could not do some of the simple things we all take for granted.

Lola is survived by her children, grandchildren, great grands and countless friends and family. She was preceded in death by her husband Richard Llewelyn and her daughter Tracie. We wish to thank the staff of Sagewood assisted living for loving Lola and taking exceptional care of her when we couldn’t be there.
