So glad to have known this wonderful lady

Funny, earlier today Lilli came vividly to mind. I remembered her kindness and generosity over the years to REEL FATHERS, the nonprofit that Allan and I started to help make the experience of fatherhood a rewarding one for men, their children and families. Lilli's early support was key to our success. I miss our phone conversations when she would listen cheerfully to my reports. Her spirit is very much with us.

On this anniversary month of your passing, may you always be remembered for your grace, kindness and strength.
You brought love and hope to so many who had been without it.

Dear Lilli, mother of my beloved Leslie,
What liveliness and grace you radiated, and what gifts you gave to the world in your daughters. Such vitality. You were a grand daughter to your own mom, and showed all us women new ways to age. What a model. Thank you. Bless you. Flowers and candles and the very best champagne to you.
