Just visited DC with my husband. I took him to Bread & Chocolate for brunch, where Lilly and I last met together in 2017, before I dropped her off for a Dr. Apt. During my visit I had many other memories of the good times we shared together as residents of the Westbridge. Miss you, Lilly!

I've lost a dear friend and former neighbor, Lilly Pilzer of Washington, DC. Lilly and I shared may good times together. She took me into her friend circle when I was new to DC. She always spoke candidly, which I appreciated, and told me if something I was wearing didn't look good. Lilly showed me around and we spent time together at many of her favorite Georgetown and Foggy Bottom restaurants, bars, and shops. Rest in Peace, Ms. Lilly.

Brenda - although we had not seen Aunt Lil for some time - her passing away is very sad for us. Please accept our sympathies.
