Terry and Tim, So sorry for your loss. Aunt Lill was such a happy person and loved by many. Bud and Lill came to visit us all the time when I was just a little girl so I've known her most of my life. You are in my prayers, but know that she is in a better place.

So sorry to read of Lil's passing. She was a fun lady and we had a lot of great times traveling with the color guard to 40 & 8 functions. I certainly enjoyed knowing her.
