Lilli Jetter passed away peacefully, at the age of 97 years, on Thursday February 27, 2025, at River Ridge Seniors Village, Medicine Hat, AB. Lilli was born December 26, 1927, in Romania. She was predeceased by her husband, Dan Jetter in 1986, and her son, Frank Jetter in 2010. Lilli (nee Hintz) married Dan in November 1959. They settled in the Orion area where they had a mixed farming operation. The Jetter’s moved to Medicine Hat in 1986.
Lilli was brilliant with calculus, and could speak 4 languages: German, Romanian, Russian, and English. In her earlier years back in the old country, she worked for the General Electric (GE) company as an assembly line Supervisor, and won an “Award of Excellence” for asking the simple question – Why they would put a kink or bend in the wiring– It would operate better if the wire was straight.
Lilli loved her flowers and gardening and spent many hours in her yard. She loved to read, do crossword puzzles, and watch German movies. She made the best pickles and borscht soup. In her later years, she enjoyed babysitting, and she volunteered weekly at Masterpiece retirement home.
In 2015, Lilli moved to Age Care Valleyview Retirement Living, were she enjoyed 10 wonderful years, creating lasting memories, and found comfort in the care and companionship that surrounded her. In her final weeks, her level of care was changing and she made the move to River Ridge. Thank you to the staff at Age Care Valleyview and River Ridge Seniors Village for their dedication and support of Lilli until her passing.
A private family Graveside Service was held yesterday at Hillside Cemetery with Pastor Shane Hein officiating. Memorial gifts in Lilli’s memory may be made to the charity of one’s choice. Condolences may be sent through www.saamis.com or to condolences@saamis.com subject heading Lilli Jetter.
