My sincerest sympathy, Mr. Anthony and family, for the great loss of our dear Ms. Lila; Knowing her was a beautiful blessing to me—- her cheerfulness and sweetness will be greatly missed! May the hope that one day we shall see one another again in a huge family reunion with our Father in heaven bring peace upon your hearts in Christ Jesus. Amen.

Dear Bro. Anthony, Zack, Nick:

Our prayers are with you at this time of great loss. Lila was one of the finest ladies that I was privileged to know and pastor. From the first day of meeting her, she was a faithful servant to her God, her church, and her pastor and his family. Proverbs 10:7 says "The memory of the righteous will be a blessing." Sister Lila was certainly a blessing to us. We feel a great loss at her passing and will cherish her memory forever.

Please accept our deepest sympathies. It's never easy for those left behind, but when you lose someone, may it help to know how many share your sorrow and stand with you in your time of need. May God be with you and your family.
Our Prayers are with you.

We are saddened at the loss. Lila has been Sunday school teacher for all our grandchildren. They loved her. She taught right to the very end. The Caprios are family by marriage, so we take this very hard. God give strength & peace to all of the family and many friends. Her happy laugh can now only be heard in His presence, but one day, we know, we will laugh together again.
With love from the Hall Family
