Lennora was born March 5, 1942, in Nashwauk to Joseph and Gladys (Marshall) Malv. She married Kenneth Schill on Feb. 4, 1961, at St. Luke’s Church in Clearwater. Lennora loved bingo and enjoyed going to casinos with her friends. She had a very strong faith, and she converted to Catholicism. Lennora was very social, and she wouldn’t miss a party. At a young age, she was a lifeguard, and later on she enjoyed fishing at Lake of the Woods with Ken. She and Ken owned Schill Truck Repair. Lennora loved taking care of her yard, and she took great pride in its beauty. She loved her dogs and cats but, most importantly, her family and friends meant the world to her.
Lennora was preceded in death by her parents, her husband in 2009, daughter Pamela Wills, and brothers Larry Malv and Dennis Malv.
She is survived by her children Colleen Schill-Fischer of Fair Haven, Kathy (and Mark) Bjoralt of Clearwater, Jack Schill of Clearwater, and Deanna (and Tim Schuette) Schill of Palmer; brothers and sisters Jim (and Betty) Malv of Nashwauk, Dodie (and Bill) Mooney of Phoenix, Ariz., and Jodie (and Tony) Lillis of Minneapolis; sister-in-law Joan Malv of Clearwater; nine grandchildren, and seven great-grandchildren.
