I met Lilli in the 1970s when I was in college. She was probably the most fasinating woman I have ever met. I admired her artistic talent, generous spirit (I was a pretty screwed up kid back then), and she made me think. She challenged conventional ideas with her wit and tremendous verbal skills. Listening to Lilli was like listening to a fine piece of music. I am saddened to learn of her passing and send my most sincere thoughts to Cal and Jill. -Dr. Lori Varick-Smith

We were saddened to read of Lilli's passing. We first met her 20+ years ago when we moved to the Cliffside neighborhood. We lived next door to each other for a few years and then continued to keep in touch via Christmas cards for the years to follow. Whenever, we would "bump" into each other, it was always such a sweet time. Lilli was an amazing woman in every area of life ...I admired her from the first moment that I met her. She will be missed by all who knew her.
