An early memory was assisting her mother as a cook for large hay crews during the summer at the Dixie Valley Ranch.

They drove the Baja trail before a road existed, played in the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans, Sea of Cortez, and most major lakes and rivers in between. Besides her husband and family, Lillian's great love was music and her piano, and her hundreds of books. She celebrated her 68th year in the California State Grange this year. Lillian was preceded in death by her loving husband of 64 years, Albert Joiner, and her brothers, Lloyd Steiger and Melville Steiger.
