LillyAnn was born in Eaton, Colorado to Joseph Espalin and Martha Padia and was the oldest of two girls. She graduated from North High School in 1957 Denver Colorado.
She met and married an Air National Guardsman named Daniel Chester Charron in Denver Colorado, 1958. LillyAnn and Dan had four boys which were born and raised in Massachusetts until 1972, when the family moved to Denver Colorado where a fifth son was born.
LillyAnn loved her family, their various pets and was an avid seamstress. LillyAnn worked many years in various jobs and then went into the optical field where she had a long career and retired as an optician. The family was active in scouting and LillyAnn became a Den Mother and Dan was a Scoutmaster for many years. LillyAnn loved cooking, baking, dancing, quilting, gardening and flowers. In later years when her family was still growing, she enjoyed traveling back east to visit family, to Florida to see close friends and to visit her sister in South Dakota and later in Montana. LillyAnn was very involved in the lives of her grandchildren and later her great grandchildren. Her house and her heart were always open to family, friends and animals who were better for having spent time with her benefiting from her selfless generosity.
LillyAnn is survived by her sister Flora Barrett, three sons, Brad Charron (Linda), Marty Charron (Ginger), Marc Charron and daughter in law Annette Humphrey Charron; along with six grandchildren, Eric Charron (Nisha), Brandon Charron, Nichole McGee (Kenny), Michael Charron, Bess Rael (Zach), Danielle Wickens (Andrew).
