Lily Allen-Ball Obituary
Allen-Ball
Lily Katherine Allen-Ball went straight from her loving mother's womb to the arms of her sweet Jesus on Tuesday, March 16, 2010, at 4:24 p.m. She was born at the Rex Birthing Center in Raleigh, North Carolina.
Although brief, Lily's life was beautiful, and many purposes of her life were evident long before she left this world. Those that know and love her have been deeply impacted by her tiny life forever. The bittersweet memories of time with Lily have brought such richness and joy to her family's lives and can never be taken away. Her family feels so blessed to have been a part of such a special little girl's life. Both her first and middle names mean pure and she will forever be perfectly that. Never having to struggle through a world marred with pain and sin, Lily now has all Heaven's Glory! Through this time of immense sorrow, Jesus has given the family great hope, strength, and peace that passes all understanding. Lily's mother is so thankful that she chose life for her baby and praises the One who chose her to carry someone so wonderfully made.
Lily's parents, Hannah Rose Allen of Knightgale, North Carolina, and Joey D. Ball of Charlottesviille, would like to invite anyone who'd like to come to the memorial service honoring the life of their precious flower, Lily Katherine. It will he held 11 a.m. Saturday, March 27, 2010, at the Hilisboro Cemetery in Crozet, Virginia, with Pastor Robert French officiating. Under the open sky and surrounded by the majestic Blue Ridge mountains, all are welcome to gather around sweet Lily to celebrate her life!
Friends will also be received by Lily's great-grandmother, Nancy Virginia Bain of Crozet; and grandparents, Ginny Bain Allen and Chuck Allen, both of Knightgale, North Carolina, Don Ball, and Suzanne Ball, both of Lancaster County, Virginia; as well as loving aunts, uncles, and cousins. Her family greatly rejoices that they will one day again be with their precious angel, who was simply too beautiful for earth.
