Ogden was my late husband's accountant for many years and John loved and trusted him. He was a good man, husband and father.

Still miss Ogden. He loved his family, never forgot a friend, old and new, and stayed connected with everyone. So glad Oggie, Aaron, Bennett, and entire family are doing well. We send our love. Lucinda and Rich Angyal

I did not know Howard real well. But i did sit and talk with him as we both watched our sons play ball for a few years. I will share that I know he found great joy watching Bud play. He told me so more than once. That was a great gift to him and hopefully if not for just a small moment, made his illness a little more bearable. My condolences to the family.

I am very honored to call Ogden my boss for nearly 20 years. The loss is huge for us all both personally and professionally. I will never forget how respectful he was to me, and how much he appreciated my time and effort (especially because he always thought that work imposed on my time with my children). He thanked me for coming to work-imagine that! Ogden appreciated all his staff and his clients adored him. I have nothing but great things to say about him, and he will never be forgotten. To his family: I wish you peace and strength always. Thank you for sharing him with us. May his memory be eternal.

Oggie has been the greatest friend to my family and associates for many many years. He was the
most professional, kind, caring and humorous person anyone could ever hope to deal with. He was truly caring and his wide range of interests and intelligence made for wonderful conversation and humor. He has made such a major positive impact on our family that there will never be the words to express our gratitude. He always spoke so highly of his family and the love and pride that he had for
all of you would shine like a light whenever the conversation turned to family.
I hope that we can all take even a small piece of the care, kindness, true interest in others that Oggie had and put it to service in the dealings we all have with those we meet.
The measure of the impact he had on all that had the pleasure to interact with Oggie simply cannot be calculated. Every meeting with Oggie was like a reunion with an old
friend.
He will be truly missed. Hoping that the knowledge of his contributions to those fortunate enough to know him will give some small comfort in this time of grief.
All our thoughts and prayers go to his family and friends.

We were all given a gift in knowing him.

Dear Rose, Oggie, Bud and family, We were so sorry to hear of Ogden's passing. He was such a very good and kind man. We were remembering the wrestling matches, baseball card trades and him running down the street after Buddy. When we moved, he would stop the Mustang in the middle of the street and visit with the boys or us giving us updates on the family. Ogden was a true family man, so very proud of his family and so happy to have Bennett. We will remember him fondly as the guy who always greeted you with a big smile and who was happy to hear all your news. We wish that all the wonderful memories help ease your pain and sadness of losing someone so dear.

My deepest sympathy to Ogden's family. Prayers for strength at this sad time. He was my CPA for 34 yrs. and I will surely miss that voice, that came twice a year that said, Hey, Nannette this is Ogden- Ogden Lilly -say on those 2016 taxes and so on.
Again I say he will be missed. Rest in peace.

Mr. Lilly was my accountant for almost 10 years. Not only an excellent accountant, he was a kind and caring person, who remembered things like my son's SAT scores that I revealed during the pleasantries that preceded one of our yearly tax meetings. My family will miss him dearly! Our prayers go out to his family, that he loved so much.
