Mr. Lilley was my 8th grade algebra teacher at Jefferson Jr. High. The previous year my teacher nearly killed my love of math but Mr. Lilley restored it and then some. He was a very nice, compassionate, and fun teacher. Even his students that didn't particularly like math learned to like it. I was shocked and heartbroken to hear of his passing. Dee, may the love you shared carry you through the days ahead. To all his family, friends, and former students my prayers and thoughts are with you....

This really broke my heart to hear...you was the best teacher at Pontiac Central High School! I really got to know you in gym class & when I worked in the bookstore with Mrs. Lyons❤ always so positive with a big huge smile on your face everyday! Your memories I will forever hold on too! Rest in peace Mr. Lilly I know your finding so many adventures up there
