If the department furnishes funeral assistance for deceased recipients under *RCW 74.08.120 , the department shall have a lien against those assets left to a surviving spouse or minor children under those conditions defined in *RCW 74.08.120 . The lien is valid for six years from the date of filing with the county auditor and has preference over the claims of all unsecured creditors.
