Lillian was a lovely "spark of life" and a pleasure to know. She always had a smile on her face and was so happy to see friends and neighbors. She will be missed at Brooksby Village. She left many happy memories.

This morning's service was a lovely tribute to a very special lady. I knew Lillian through activities at Temple Beth El, and it was always a pleasure being in her company. You are lucky to have had so many years with her.
