Lila Sher Margulies

I worked at the Lucy Scribner Library from 1972-2013. In that time, we trained hundreds of students to work there. While you don't remember every one of them, some students stand out and Lila was one of them. This was taken May 1994 at the circulation desk with fellow student, Jens Ohlin. It was the last day in the library before they began renovation and expansion of the building, and we went to the Sports Center for a year and operated with double the number of students workers (60)...

I only just saw this terrible news in the FS newsletter. Lila was instrumental in my son´s life and helped him navigate some challenges. She made such a difference. We will always be grateful for having known her.

I never met Lila but I have been deeply moved by her story, and by her courage through this harrowing journey over the past several years. Becky has shared some of her writing with me which frankly could be published because she was an amazing writer. I am sending so much love to Becky, to her children, husband, parents and friends.

I was lucky to meet Lila when my husband was diagnosed with cancer. She inspired me to question the status quo and also accept life´s curveballs. All with a twist of humor that I very much appreciated. So sorry to hear about her passing. Sending love to her family
