We have many,many fond memories of Aunt Lil. In recent years we enjoyed stopping at her house for lunch with her family and mutual friends. When we were in town 2 1/2 yrs ago we were pleased when we visited her that she was having a good day. She was very special and we will miss her. Our condolences to the family.

My condolences on your loss. One of my memories was visiting Aunt Lill in her office at Elder Beermans on Main St, when Mom would take us to buy new clothes for school. Such a tiny office with a big window so she could look out over the store. We'll miss her.
