I will miss your emails and insights into the Levy family genealogy, distant cousin. I wish I would have been able to come to Lake Charles to visit your Temple that our relatives helped found. I am glad you are at peace now.

Lillie Ray was a teacher in the Duval Public Schools and a valued Board Member of River Garden Hebrew Home for the Aged in Jacksonville, Florida. I knew Lillie Ray through her volunteer work on River Garden's Board. She was a passionate advocate for our agency, children, and the Jacksonville Jewish Community. River Garden is now a better, stronger and more robust agency because of her. May her memory be forever a blessing.

It gave me comfort knowing your friends of a lifetime were with you to the very...

My sincere and deepest sympathies to her brother and...

In loving memory of a wonderful person. Great memories of high school, Kilties together, and Friday night football. We will love you and miss you always.
